G'day guys,

Came up with an idea that I have tested and works.

For all you people who have externally vented BOV it will stop your over fuelling and stalling.

What I did was run both the stock and an aftermarket BOV. I found that the aftermarket BOV was not venting as the stock valve was letting all of the air out before it reached the aftermarket one.

To alleviate this problem I placed a thin metal plate of the mounting for the original BOV (whre gasket is), then I drilled a drilled holes in the plate so it would limit the air going through the stock valve. This inturn let the stock valve vent under low boost back to the intake to stop the engine over fuelling. But when you hit full boost the aftermarket blows out a majority of the whilst the stock valve only lets out a small amount of pressure.

And if you call now, you will receive 2 packets of 2 minute noodles free!!!!!!

Thought this would help.

Ya!! you champ man!!

good job, can't wait to try it on, by the way where you get the thin metal to place in the gasket place? and how big you drill the hole? 1/8" or ?

thanks!

I pulled the peice of aluminium of a old camera that I was going to throw out. I drilled a hole with a size 12 dowel drill bit.

I am thinking of even going to a size 10 to see how it goes. Go samll and make the hole larger for your needs.

Just curious, but say you still have the stock BOV fitted and want to 'upgrade' Would it not be a good idea to shop around for a Hybrid kind BOV that vents both to Atmo and internally? You may not get as loud a "Pssssht" sound I suppose, but wouldn't that contribute to eliminating the mixture issue?

Also, would a SAFC correct the issue if you had a pure atmo BOV?

yes, an aftermarket computer will fix the iddle problem; such as S-AFC (even the early model AFC will do the job), Power FC. or you even can spend some money on iddle stablizer (not expensive though..), depands which way you want to go consider the $$ issue.

yes, you can get the hybrid of BOV, but chance is you don't like the sound, i.e. I like the sound comes from Blitz BOV, so I will try to have it installed and try to have stable iddle. btw, don't you know the blitz BOV will increasing 10rwkw? just j/k :mad:

This is basically for a mod for people who have externally vented BOV and have the shits all the time with bad idle, stalling, flame throwing etc. If you have a aftermarket plumbback no need the do this.

Beleive me, this works or not if you like stalling:D

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
