I know it must have been discussed somewhere, but its such a big forum and finding it would take forever. I just installed my sequential BOV and it sounds absolutely MEAN!!...so here I was, going to parents house on the M2 during rush hour, and all of a sudden STALLLLLLLLL!!!!!!! Then it almost killed me during a turn when I had the clutch in and half way through the turn, it decided to stall again almost slamming me into the side of the road. That pretty much kept happening so I ended up having to down shift alot and keep the revs going not to stall....................................SO................................i've heard its the difference in air intake that causes the AFM to do XXXXXYYY, is there a way to get it right without having to go to a garage and getting it tuned?

Also, getting a lot of misfiring at the high revs

Also(2), is knocking the sound of knocking when u turn off the engine? If so, how do I fix that?

Thank you all

I know how you feel with the new BOV venting to atmosphere but this is causing your problem.

When venting to atmo you lose air which your ECU thinks it already has. This is causing it to run rich and possibly a bad idle where it is hunting.

You need to plum it back unfortunealty.

Your car will start to mis-fire after a while cause your spark plug are now fouled.

Get them replaced and the car will run fine again unless of course you keep that BOV on, then this problem will come back.

I've noticed that some people have luck with a BOV that vent to atmo and others don't. Might have to do with installation & or type of BOV.

The young padawan need learn the ways of the Search Button he does.

I know it must have been discussed somewhere, but its such a big forum and finding it would take forever.

And hence the search button, make search easy it will

    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
