are you talking about the small vacuum hose attached to the standard bov? This is the vacuum hose which opens the BOV. By blocking it off, you will be stopping the BOV opening and hence will result in fluttering. Although not sure what damage it could cause? Wouldnt be any different from running with no bov i reckon... Someone confirm this.

actually it's the opposite...without the vacuum feed the BOVs will always be open so it will never boost.

unless OP means...what if I do all that because I am running some other BOV system...in which case just drop off the vacuum line so there is no leak and off you go!

it runs from the intake manifold to the blow off valve, right? that is the intake's way of telling the blow off valve when shit's getting serious and to remain closed.

if you unplug that line i would guess whenever you achieve boost you will hear the bov whistling and releasing your hard earned boost.

don't know how much you know about turbos and how the whole system works but i would also say the wastegate might open a bit later due to the lower pressures in your intake piping from the bov leak. if this happened, your turbo would spool harder so i wouldn't suggest it. you don't know when a turbo will let go.

treat it like a bitchy woman... Treat it nicely and it will continue to blow for years to come ;)

I'll confirm it...you reckoned WRONG....

Like Duncan said...if the bov doesn't get a pressure source when boosting...it creeps open and you lose boost pressure through it...not rocket science here...just common sense....

well put thanks,you have answered that all i wanted to know.

Disconnected mine because I was having issues with something, and yeah, a 300rwkw car turned into a 80rwkw car.

Wouldn't go over 10psi and stalled, and ran like shit.

It is there for a reason.

So no flutterz fully sic bro.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
