BOV's are not as bad as cops make out, yes they vent but its only air not exhaust gas, if I get pulled up I can see I'm going to be arrested for telling a cop he's a dumb shit (being a mechanic)

I hate that they can hand out defects for things they don't even know the name of.

wut?

you are correct that they only vent air

but they affect the afrs (ecu adds fuel for the air that it thinks went in)

therefore resulting in too many bad gasses which kill baby seals and rape pandas

We can't have our cars raping pandas now can we?

My car got defected for one dead numberplate light... Cops will pin you if they want to, unfortunately you can't stop them.

My new build im using a bov that vents to atmo cos I don't want any pipes into my intake lol, same as my catch can won't plumb into intake.

If I ever get a yellow for the bov I'll just blank it for the inspection ;p

Run the catch can pipe into the airbox? Doesnt need to feed into the intake pipe then!

Atmo BOV is just asking to be hassled though!

gate impresses slarts not bov!

neither you would understand hence why ur gay!

All I have to do is start my car to impress, I don't have to hoon or hit boost or anything. Simply changing gear at 50ks at half throttle will literally knock the sunglasses off the top of your head ;)

.... Anyway woooosh noises are cool, I'd have a woosh noise if I had a turbo

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
