i am having severe backfire since i installed a custom 3" Exhaust on my r33

Series 2, it has also a Apexi filter and a Blitz Blow Off Valve. The 33 also stalls sometimes and i was told this is because of the Aftermarket BOV, and the majority of 33 do stall on ocassions!! Is this true!!!

Plzz someone help me resove the problem with the backfiring!!!! Wat can it be... ITs running stock boost and no other engine mods......

Cheers...

skylines run a bit rich when stock already. Putting an exhaust and pod in makes it even more rich. Thus more backfiring.

The backfiring is caused by your bov as well. Your engine sees a certain amount of air coming in through the air flow metre. So it goes, we need to put this much fuel in. But when you release the accelerator, the bov lets the air go. So now there is this extra unburnt fuel, which goes into the hot exhaust pipe, gets ignited, then pop.

hope that was helpful. THere is nothing you can do about it, except for getting an aftermarket ecu like a powerfc.

Do you think i should decrease the amount of pressure released from the BOV because at the moment it is running the highest it can sound.... So allowing less air to be released by the BOV will allow for less Backfiring!!!!

Does this kind of Backfiring hurt my car?????

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
