More than likely not

But in theory it should due to some of the air running back into the engine and not getting dumped into the atmosphere?

Ill play with this and get back. This whole "pshhht sick uleh" shit is bit annoying considering the car is not as reliable as its with a stock bov.

GFB hybrid was installed on my car for years, no issues with stalling from it, full atmo was swapped and i had that issue.. it will be better than a full atmo.

So no stalling at all on 50 50? Cos I been driving with it for a few days now and it stalled completely once when I was idling... and then also had these small "set backs" like when I pushed the throttle and it just stalled for half a sec then let go and was fine again... this really pisses me off.

i've got a stealthfx .. on about 60/40 cos i don't want it too loud .. i have no stalling issues whatsoever . .even if i put in the clutch and let the revs fall.

if you are getting stalling, adjust the spring tension by twisting the cap only. that will make the bov close sooner and should get rid of your stalling issues.

Was it the stealth fx BOV??

no its GFB Hybrid... u can have 50 atmo 50 plumback setting.

my mate has Stealth FX on his s15... it sounds the best like u said... the flutter down low and awesome water splash when giving it!

well the flutter on a skyline is compressor surge not such a good thing to have if you value the life of the turbo. the 50/50 set up should be fine.

yeah its the BOV fluttering and it says that its OK for flutter at low RPM in the booklet.

at high rpm it whistles!

also look at VL turbos... they have no bov... and their turbos seemed to last for years.

I still get a flutter (gfb hybrid on 50/50) noise on low boost but thats coming from the bov it self as piston slides up and down.

When i took the bov off it fluttered in a different way.

u just connect the hose to the plumback trumpet right and vent the atmo plug yeh?

one pointing towrds you and is round, put hose over that to the std plumb back piping..

the other is a trumpet and you leave it alone.

just have to swivel the bov on the adapter so its in the right position..

edit : use hose clamps

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
