+1 for BOV not helping the situation.

I have an auto R33 atm and since putting a Blitz atmo on back off it almost stalls. But I live with it for the hektik doses it does :yucky: ..

I'd be pressure testing the system for leaks as they will also create stall issues along with the bov set-up..

mine use to stall a fair bit too..i run a greedy type rs bov and i've tightened it up a fair bit...before that i had some taiwanese bov and i could watch the piston stay open too long which would cause the car to nearly stall..then pickup again. having the spring pressure set correctly and the right size piping feeding your bov seems to be the right combination...also put zip ties or hose clamps over your airline to you bov.

tips for catching idle...

1. wait until it gets tired then bash with brick

2. drink beer and wait until it comes back on its own

3. trip idle with a stick

4. number 2 its easier and less tiresome

5. i believe a "profit" fits in my list somewhere

or just drink beer and let future you sort that shit out

Damn you and your maturity superben....

I have been accused of a lot of things, maturity isn't one of them.

I'm a little shocked,but I know you guys will support me through it.

Anyway, back on topic, fix op's car or f**k off.

Ha ha alright cheers lads.

I've put everything back to stock to try and figure this out. Hooked up a boost gauge, works fine at reading boost while driving.

However.. It reads 0psi when idling? Every other car I've owned and know of reads negative pressure. Tried 3 gauges and all do the same.

It's an auto s1 stagea, is this normal?

Was rhinking of hooking the gauge up to the vacuum on the fuel pressure reg to see if the system is okay.

thanks a trillion

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
