Have a look at the latest Zoom mag. The one with OBHAIVE on the cover. They have done a review on the E Boost.

Doh! :goddam: I gues i'll have to wait and see.

Hey guys, i have a turbo smart dual stage controller which i'm waiting to put in. Has anyone had any experience with these??

trbo32 - As one of the 'know it all legends' I accept your apology. lol. I don't think anyone was having a go at you or patronising you. You were simply corrected. I accept the apology, I wasn’t trying to cause any rifts I just got a bit pissed at what R31Nismoid said, but it’s cool. drifto that sounds pretty accurate and close to what I have heard also.

Ok, I’ll get over the total flogging I just got for saying that WRXs came out with no BOV. I'm sorry if my facts aren't straight for all you know it all legends out there. I was only commenting on what a WRX dealer told me when my mate was looking at buying one. Excuse me for not knowing how to place quotes in the forum. get your facts straight first. how well you treat your turbo? so what, your never going to make boost with it so it's stays like brand new??? Ok R31Nismoid, Obviously I was referring to the wear a turbo will receive if you don't run a BOV as this thread is about BOV and not about running high boost or no boost!! A turbo will inevitably die anyhow. BOV or no BOV. How long this is... well that could be debated for ever. It's like how long is a piece of string. With no BOV it'll just bring it on a little sooner. How much sooner is so variable and debatable I’m not going to go into it as it'll always be one side vs another. Look at my car's turbo... it's ROOTED, it's been running no BOV and it's totally buggered. I'm 99% certain that when I get my new turbo, run a BOV, that it will be far more beneficial for the car and turbo. Isn’t that just what I was saying when I said it depends on how well you treat your turbo. I didn’t go all that, like you did, but that is what I was trying to say. Maybe you should read the posts twice as not to repeat what has already been said!! And yeah people have mentioned this topic a numerous amount of times at this forum, so sue me if I want to ask a question. ALL turbo car's in the 90's come out with a BOV. INCLUDING WRX's. just because you cant hear the big PSSHT... of the after market BOV as it's a plumb back (as all factory BOV's are), shows you obviously don’t know what your listening for. Mate, I drive and own an R32 Skyline with a plump back BOV and I know how a BOV sounds whether it's dumping to atmo or running a return line. I don’t appreciate being patronised, especially in a place like this. A lot of people rely on the advise and comments people make, as they come here because they are interested in their vehicle. They hope that people don’t pass judgement on them or degrade them just because they say something that might not be as accurate as they thought. If I knew all the facts then I wouldn’t be hear asking questions would I.

I have heard a lot of high performace cars running with the flutter sound. WRX's come out of the factory with no BOV. I guess it comes down to how you want to treat your turbo. I have heard of cases were turbos were running high boost and the driver let of the accelrator and the intake of the air bent the impeller blades back, stuffed the turbo. But these are in extreme cases. Not sure what i'm going to do. Does anyone know how to block the stock BOV on a R32 GTS-t? Also, are you able to make the stock BOV dump to atmosphere?

Hey guys does anybody know how to get that stuttering sound when ever you let go of the accelerator. I hear a lot of VL turbos’ that make a descending stuttering sound as apposed to the single whoosh (something like that ) mine makes whenever I let go of the accelerator. I heard that if you block or remove the BOV then it will make that sound. But doesn't removing the BOV cause damage to the turbo? If anyone has seen the Drift Bible, the guy's S14 makes the sound I’m talking about.

I'm going to ask a stupid question, so please bare with me. What does FMIC and SAFC stand for?? Also, do you guys think it possible to get 200rwkw from an R32 stock turbo with the same mods?

How many liters for a R32 GTS-t manual tranny?

thanks

Your in Japan!! should have no probs finding parts. Check the junk yards!! Try finding a frame in Australia!!

Hi guys, i use meguires, great stuff. However, i heard that the 3m range are really good, better than meguires. Anyone use this before. You can't get them from the shops. Only panel beaters have them. i found a place on the internet that stock it though, but i can't remember the adress ;(

I noticed on my R32 there are two bolts side by side of the passenger side of the gearbox. Which one is the filler plug?? What’s the name of the Redline oil everyone recommends here for gearbox oil?? Where can you get it in Melbourne? Thanks

Oh cool, Gee those Nissan guys are clever!!

Do you have to change the filter on the Manual gearbox? Is there a filter on the Manual boxes? I know that when changing oil on an auto box, you need to replace the filter aswell. Is this true for the Skylines?
