Hey guys,

I did a quick search but couldn't really find anything that detailed what needs to be done to fit GTR bov's to my R34 GTT engine.

From what i understand, GTR's use a twin bov system, which means i would need to get some custom piping done. Basically i just wanted to know if anyone has done this before and what was involved, or if not, if someone knows what exactly would need to be done to fit them?

Cheers,

Martin

Oh, really? I thought they needed the twin setup to work properly? Although to be honest i don't understand why...

So you can just use one and they fit straight on to where the RB25 one was? Still sound the same as they do on a GTR? Sound isn't important, i just think they sound awesome, so if they sound the same then thats a bonus :blink:

the hose can be "made" to fit..

needs more lube and pushing

Are we still talking about the bov? :blink:

Lol, thanks guys, so i can use a single GTR bov and it is a straight bolt on replacement for the RB25 one, no modification needed?

What diameter piping does the GTR bov use compared to the RB25 bov, do you know? Don't have the new engine yet, so can't go measure for myself :)

Hey guys,

Just wondering if running a single GTR bov will produce the same sound as running the twin set up? I just absolutely love the sound of the GTR bov's, but if it's not gonna sound the same with a single bov then i want to try and get two working...

This is the sound i am after:

that 2nd youtube video is great but they arent stock bovs. the stock ones wont give flutter.

I've been told that's not actually flutter, it's the turbulence created by the air flowing from the two bov's into the single return pipe. My mates GTR sounds exactly like this and the bovs are definitely stock on his car

GTR BOV's will "teeter" off each other etc, however one will cleraly not do that on its own.

This is what a single will sound like if the BOV can't quite pas all the air (this was a single on mine, it was ok, tiny flutter)

Ok but that still sounds quite similar to the twin setup. I'm not really after the flutter effect, just the sound of the bov. Does your bov sound like that all the time, or just under heavy load?

Say i wanted to install the twin setup on my car, what would need to be done? Is it possible? How would it differ to the single setup?

Hi Guys, sorry to hijack the thread but are you using GTR bovs on RB25DET's just for noise or is there another purpose?

Will the standard RB25DET one handle 300rwkw?

MOST people don't use them just for the noise, rather the fact that they are a very very good bov and can handle a lot of boost. I personally love the sound of them, i think they are the best sounding bov you can get. So i'm going for the upgrade, but really want the sound as well seeing as they sound so good.

Whats wrong with your GTT bov? When does it max out power wise?

Honestly i wouldn't know, engine will only be going in next week sometime :P

Stock GTT bov would be more than capable for me at first, i will only be running 12psi when i first get it back. But once i get the new turbo i will be running 18psi+, so i would like the GTR bov to have the peace of mind handling that boost.

If you're not after the sound then really i wouldn't worry about upgrading unless you are having problems with your bov.

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
