Swap: Apexi Bov For Different Bov


Recommended Posts

Hi lads,

like the topic says im after a trade for my Apexi Dual Chamber BOV for a different BOV... preferably a brand name.... i dont want dodgy shit..

would really like a Blitz Super Sound or a HKS SSQ... but it doesnt matter im just sick of my sound and want something different.

there is a pic below and if you are sick of your sound too please let me know and i will happily trade you.

the pic is of the engine bay... you can get an idea of what it is through that

cheers bro,

Chris Colgrave Auto in Hobart did it... all up it cost $1400 for the intercooler and all custom pipework

Holy shit, you could have had one of the jap brand kits for that sort of money! Must be good...

either way it looks dam nice, what sorght of power you running. I got a Hybrid kit i'm installing on the weekend, doesn't look anything like that, SIGH.

NICE i like it, VERY quality work, the welds are spot on, got to love tigs.

well at the moment its 208kw atw on 10psi... safe tune

yeah im not much of a fan of hybrid kits... or any pre-made intrcooler kits for that matter.... i dont beleive you can get a good intercooler and piping for like $600... i wouldnt touch them... but each to their own...

i like that setup. i am just in the prosess of doing a similar setup. it makes more sence to run the pipeing this way as it means there is less of the pipe in the engine bay after cooling. 1m compared to 2m the normal way.

hopefully my setup wont cost that much thoe. ill be running a GTR cooler core with custom pipes. probably only aluminimum thoe. i chose a GTR core because they will flow 300rwkw and are good for what they are and cheap. compared to buying a hybrid or just jap system.

sorry to hijack.

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
