Firstly I apologies if this has been covered but either my search function sucks balls or I just can't find anything on the topic?

Ok so my exhaust is a 3" turbo back job but has a custom screamer pipe and a blocked bov for dose

Neither of these things appeal to me

The car has a td05 turbo gtr injectors FMIC and a few other goodies making about 210rwkw at 1bar

The reason I say this is I have 2 questions

Will a stock bov set up either still blocked or plumbed in properly be ok on these boost levels? am I going to loose any power or have more lag or response yadayada,

Looking for a slightly more legal and city friendly sound. I actually don't mind the flutter but yea anyway.

And the other question is what's the best way to plumb both of these things in properly? I know the screamer needs to enter the exhaust system before the cat.

The screamer makes sence to me but I'm not even sure if my blocked bov is a stock unit? Pick below.

Sorry I will also add that I have a limited understanding of the pipe work, how much would a shop slug me without being dicks to remove the screamer pipe and plumb it in?

Thanks in advance for the help and sorry if theirs a million threads already existing.

Stock BOV it is . Just use some hose of that size, or source the original hard pipe from a wreck to connect the BOV outlet back to the turbo inlet. Depending on what needs to be done to your turbo inlet to hook that up, this should cost from not a lot to not a lot more.

Exhaust shop should be able to connect the screamer back into the dump at the bottom bend for not a lot. Almost beer money.

Oh, by the way, the stock BOV is the best thing to have on the car for response. And it will be perfectly fine at 1 bar boost.

That is the stock BOV, they just whacked a cup over the end to seal it off. Take that off and get that line plumbed infront of your turbo, in your intake pipe. What ECU do you have btw? Do you have an AFM?

I would leave the BOV and get rid of the screamer. That one will get you into big shit.

you can buy a JJR bellmouth dump pipe for $180 which will fix your screamer problem, id rather do that than plumb in the screamer... the bellmouth works best on a stock sort of setup

reconnect the stock bov as its just capped off. buy the stock hoses and pipes from a wrecker. stock bov good to over 20psi no worries (1.5 bar)

Ok I'm going to fly my noob flag a little bit.

I buy the stock solid hose and that goes from my bov to.... Is their another blocked off hose point somewhere?

Also a new bellmouth dump pipe what size are they? Do I need a larger one?

can post a pic of the intake/turbo side of engine, as you say it has a TD05 so the piping may have been changed, if the stock intake pipe is still in place then there will be a port to plumb it back into.

if the TD05 turbo has the standard T25 flange setup them just buy the dump pipe as stated already, pic of screamer from turbo would help with advise aswell

agreed i forgot to take notice that you have a TD05, you may need to retain the custom dump unless your TD05 has the standard sort of dump pipe pattern.

please take a photo of your turbo and plumbing on that side and post.

Is that screamer just pressed into the WG outlet? Jeeezus Christ!

The dump and screamer are nasty enough that I would replace them rather than keep them. But yes, as above, it could just be joined back in and it would work*.

*by work I mean just as well as it does now, but without the shitful noise.

    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
