Cool know the black one but wasn't sure about the breather and bov return

Mine has a blitz bov or dump valve close to the throttle plate, is that not standard or bov comes with these cars ?

The return pipe is blanked off so guess it may be it was used and not it no longer it ??

Can you block both of those pipes and remove them ?

So does r34 have bov from manufacture ?

If so is it the one just before the throttle plate as mine was changed to blitz

If above is correct thej why do they have the turbo return pipe close to intake which is blocked off? Can one buy a silicone and remove that 2 pipe ( metal ones?)

The BOV return needs to be close to the turbo inlet to stop reversion. They blocked it off so the turbo doesn't suck unfiltered air once the atmo BOV was fitted.

Silicone intakes are bloody stupid if that's what you mean, they suck shut when they get hot as the turbo generates a lot of vacuum.

I am failing to understand the point of it

If it is close to intake and the air returns when throttle is closed, the box close to throttle plate releases that air so what is this for ?

Even if air goes there it is trapped, right?

I am sorry if this sounds stupid but don't get it

Curious as to how it works

The factory BOV releases trapped pressure in the intake and releases it in front of the turbo so it goes around and around. But this aspect of the functionality doesn't really matter, because the reality of the situation is that the factory BOV is not really a BOV. Calling it a BOV is a lazy shorthand. It is really a compressor bypass valve, and what it does it it opens when the engine is under vacuum to allow air to flow direct from the inlet to the engine without having to pass through the turbo. Thus unloading the turbo and allowing it to spool faster.

Simples.

ok , I have been reading around and know why people are saying to put the original or at least recirculating valve back but i love the sound of the blow off

I know this means richer engine but how much ?

if I want to keep maf , can i relocate maf close to intake or is that silly idea? no one has ever done this and my question would be why not just relocate it ?

sorry if this sounds daft but not sure really

    • 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.
