Yeah right.

Don't come back and post on here after you fit atmo BOVs while still running air flow meters and find your car is stalling when the throttle is closed (stopped at lights), black spark plugs, blowing lots of black smoke and running like crap.

IIm not sure if either of u know but dual ports are plumb back unless urn footsteps down which is gonna attract the cops blow off noise or not. and it shouldn't make any difference to running. it'll run slightly rich for a brief moment when it blows off which is y they're illegal they run rich cos the maf detects air going in. it still thinks that amount of air is in the system not discharged so adds fuel accordingly. definitely won't do anything at idle

I put a full gtr cooler/bov setup on my 32gtst, awesomely compact and complete solution.

With a stainless mesh pod filter, stainless intake pipe and the 2" bov return, it's almost as noisy as some aftermarket bov's.. but less offensive, nicer to drive with (still afm) and draws less attention.

Edit: oh and my setup is legal. The reason atmo bov's are ILLEGAL is not because they can make your car run a little rich when you lift off the gas (which will make your engine want to stall), they are illegal because EVERYTHING that goes in through your intake, MUST come out the exhaust via the cat.

Cars can run rich. the stoichiometric ratio is an ideal ratio not a definite rule and if Im wrong about both these things don't take your car to a mechanic cos they're training us wrong

Umm.. there is such a thing as TOO rich but hey, your theory obviously outweighs my real world experience :ermm:

yeah im a qualified mechanic i worked for Nissan. i never said there wasn't such a thing as too rich. i said the stoichiometric ratio was ideal meaning not too rich or lean. i mean Im sure atmo and dual port bovs were designed to mak your car run like shit and stall and blow smoke. Y else would u buy one

People buy them because they like rice.

They are not meant to be used with afm's and stock ecu's. Run a map sensor setup and tune for it, no worries.

I'm not a trained mechanic and I don't work for Nissan but like a lot of people on here who do a lot of the work themselves, I've been there and done a fair bit.. the "I'm a mechanic, I know everything" sort of attitude won't get you very far around here.

As Ive said lots of times on here, I run an atmo HKS bov running 20psi and my tuner didnt have a problem and actually said it held fine and had no problems with tuning with it, I dont have stalling issues...

but thats on a rb25...

You claim you are a mechanic for Nissan, are unsure how many bov's are factory on a gtr. How hard is it to get the workshop manual out?

Put 6 bov's on. One per cylinder. Your car will sound fully sick, and get all the boys into your yard.

Owned 2 cars with atmo bov's and AFM's. Both with good tunes, and both popped on gear changes, fluctuated at idle as the guys above have said.

Yeah don't bother with changing the BOV's, the std ones do the job really well and you will find that a lot of pod filter setup's actually resonate the noise back through the intake.

I am running HKS pods and they amplify the BOV's as good as an atmo setup, only that they are legal and the more boost you run the different the pitch they give out.

Oh and you won't have any of the air flow issues that could arise from other setup's.

This preety much sums it up .

U ask for advice but argue when u Don't get the answer u want .

Questions like These have been asked many times on here

And alot of us are speaking from experience not just blowing smoke up ya .

At the end of the day mate if "u know" what u are doing then do it . Simple as that

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
