I get the stutter when low boosting, but i was really after the high pitch ching sound. Do you need to run more than 7 psi to get it?

Apexi dual chamber BOV is easy to install and sounds awesome, has that high pitch sound when revving hard!! also has 3 different sounds but you can hardly notice the difference between them

i don't know if i'm sold on the brotec. my cousins friend had one on his 180 and it didn't make the whup-whup-da-doo-whup-chufff sound he wanted. maybe he just didn't have the right setting chosed on his ecu? the brotec bov is tuneable, isn't it?

Bro you gotta retune it, I know this guy with a whikid hookup at Carshop nagano if it helps.

They offer a complimentary can of coke while you wait to

Why would you bother getting an aftermarket BOV that is plumb back if the stock one is plumb back ?

So basically atmo BOV's are good for performance because there is a slight decrease in lag and they prolong turbo life but plumb backs are good because they give a smoother ride ?

i would love to go, but eddy told me they want 3 surfie shirts per re-tune?? I don't have that kind of doh atm... ;)

almost right.

the only change to your post is that ATMO bovs are good for nothing.

Aftermarket plumback bovs are good for the sticker they come with.

This brotec device sounds interesting.

I'll take 12

As a matter of fact Brotec is running a special, buy 12 get 15 free, but the offer is strictly limited to the next 50,000 callers - be quick

i will sell you mine. I'm sick of the farking thing. I've had to have it re-tuned so many times it's not funny and it still doesn't go whup-whup-da-doo-whup-chufff.

I got a HKS super sequential BOV on my car....only because I don't want my turbo stalling when I lift off the throttle. I dont care what anyone says, I'd rather be safe and run a BOV cause for me a GT30 aint cheap. Anyways, I must make my point about the HKS superquential BOV: what a gay souonding BOV. WTF did the designers think: that a squeek is a nice sound....they gayest sounding BOV on the market. The design concept it great but why did they choose that sound? Im gonna plumb it back very soon. If anyone knows how to make it sound just like a pssssht rather than like a cat getting run over, let me know. The reason why I bought this valve is because of its design (push-pull) which garantees no leak but sure as hell not for the sound.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
