check this out guys!!

when i bought the car i thought it had a stock BOV on .. but today i saw a piece of metal with "blitz" on it.. under the air box

im like cool iv got sumthin thats blitz...

i take a closer look and its a F**kn bov!!!

some idiot but a blitz bov on the car under the airbox and left the stock 1 there!!

and coz the stock 1 is ferther back the blitz 1 doesnt even get to go off!! it aint loud at all..

u cant hear the bov properly when u just rev it on the spot! only a lil on changes!!

what the hell do i do??

i was thinking of swaping the blitz and stock bovs around so the blitz 1 is the 1 used first for better sound..

or maybe replace the stock 1 with the blitz and some how block the hole where the blitz 1 was off (iv got nfi how to block it!)

what do uz recon??? :P

dam prank! nice position! - my blitz is right under the airbox :P iv got no idea why they put it there.. but it should sound better after i remove the airbox and get a filter ;)

prank.. the problem with mine was that the stock was not blocked off..

so the air was filtering through the stock 1 and didnt have a chance to get to the blitz.

i fixed it today..;)

i but a piece of metal between the piping and the stock valve..

now he air goes straight to the blitz bov!

sounds nice!!!

but i need more boost and a POD filter and exhaust ;) to make it sound louder:uh-huh: :D;)

yeah. its VERY loud there... if i hit boost hard through any tunnels (spesh the harbour tunnel) it is seriously deafening. My whole front bar shakes when it goes off.

Yeah, i luuuurve my DTMS!! :P:D (thanks too).

JiMb0 experienced my bov at low boost last w/end. ;)

that was Bec 2. :) I have 2 becs, my gf and my other bec (a good friend) - that was my friend Bec, not my gf.... it gets confusing.

yeah, when i lifted off it had only hit 2psi. :) or thereabouts.

GTR80Y, i need to angle the valve upward!! ;)

      I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.

      [HOW-TO] Winter Steam-Clean & Odour Removal in 30 min

      Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up

      Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
