Gtr Engine Rb26 Bov Questions ?

[anthony84]

i just got my rb26 32 and i want to change bov

it has twin stock ones

1st ? can i leave one standard and the other r2d2?

2nd ? can i just put the r2d2?

if so where to put it best spot?

Ok i dont own a gtr but logically hears my guess.

You have 2 intakes, going into 2 turbo's then merging into one pipe either before or after the fmic (never checked which).

So theoretically you could plug the stock vents and add a single one just before the throttle body ah-la rb25.

I'd assume that mixing bovs wouldnt be a good thing due to the fact that they might both respond in very different ways (ie flow totally different amounts, one plumbs back the other doesnt etc etc) for all i know, and that may have carry on consequences.

Anyone care to correct me or confirm this?

keep the stock ones fitted, been covered many times. no need to change

amen brother!

the factory got that part right, why go and mess with it, putting something else on and then putting a new thread up next week asking why your car runs like shit.

I recommend the Brotech Apoxi blow smart adaptor for GTR's this allows you to fit single BOV's in the GTR standard location and retails for only $20 at Autobarn.

I think there is a apoxi blow smart pro version now that has blue LED's on it too.

stock GTR items or your gonna have issues

As this has been tried plenty of times and will be reitterated many more times, stick with the stockies.

Can't be beaten!!

I know Supra's that even change to the stock GTR BOVs coz their so good.

The fastest drag GTR in Vic and the fastest circuit GTR in Vic both use stock BOVs

WHy do you want to change them? no point to it unless you want that gay sneezing sound which you will get sick of in about a month. Have a search someone posted here recently he wanted a blow off valve so bad, he put one on and a month later he couldn't wait to get rid of it....

Leewah runns over 600rwkw with stock BOV's. Keep them.

Dont be too quick to generalise there Ash, I have never had a problem on my GTR with the Trust Type R

[R31Nismoid]

Are you using a stock ECU?

[ferni]

What was your reason for changing it Nick?

[Blitz]

Are you using a stock ECU?

I was was using it on the standard ECU without a problem and still using it with the Power FC.

Ferni: Reason for changing it? honesltly it was an impulse buy from one of my Japan trips

[Beer Baron]

never had any trouble with my twin bitz sequential wank master pro valves on the GTR either. it idles fine, runs fine. not worries. it was runing before with a chipped ecu and then with the power FC. I probably would have kept the stock ones if i had them.

Or theres the OS Gaylord type FS-b (fully sick, bro) adaptor, Autobarn now has them for $10.
