Hi everyone,

There are a few 2nd hand Blitz BOVs going around and they seem to be pretty good value except they aren't plumb back which is what I'm after.

The little trumpet section seems to be screwed on and I'm wondering if anyone know if there is a replacement for that part which has a plumb back attatchment.

Anyone?

Thanks :D

Really? Thats pretty interesting.

The whole reason i was going for an aftermarket BOV was cause i now have fluterring on the standard BOV after the turbo upgrade, and i was under the impression not enough air was being passed thru so i had back pressure on the turbo compressor blades.

Am i wrong? (probably haha)

Anyway, one of these if peeps dont' know what i mean :

The pic shows 2 different available attatchments.

having a bov is a myth. there is no proven damage to ur turbo by running no bov. CA18 and I believe some SR20det came with no stock BOV and I know of one CA18det which has been going on with its T28 turbo for a good 4 years without a bov.

BOV are myths, but I love the sound.

Sure, no damage to turbo, but you have to admit that your turbo should still be spinning at a higher speed after a gear change.

Besides, some cars didn't have intercoolers, doesn't mean there's no point :rolleyes:

Hey, you've got a Blitz Supersonic Bov !!! Haha :D

BOV's are not a myth on a Skyline whos ECU expects it to be there. Please dont post silly information.

Birnie, its almost a direct swap... PM me if you want more details as i have it im a PM somewhere, just no time no to go leaf through a few 1000 PM's to find exactly what another person did.

Cheers

agreed been running high hp cars for years with no bovs.

You said having a BOV is a myth

That is not correct. On a car that has an AFM and ECU settings like a sykline, its required

unless you live in thommo and want dose...... which every second r33 has :P

    • It’s not driver training though, it’s just an online questionnaire and $65 
    • Almost certainly no. In Vic they have this crazily restrictive set of rules for mods that is usually interpreted as "no more than 2 modifications to the intake system". And they're not real hot on upgraded turbos at all, let alone high mounts. That means if you fit a bigger (particularly front mount) intercooler (which is, of course, almost impossible to go without) then you're already down to one other mod allowed. You'll really benefit from hearing from someone from Vic who knows the real state of play. Even better, speak to an automotive mods certifying engineer from Vic. You can actually read the rules from the govco websites yourself, too.
    • Well, I'm not clicking on a link to f**king bookface (never have, never will), so I can't really know what the complaint here is about, but.... There's nothing particularly wrong with forcing people to have a higher license category to drive super/hypercars. Note that the laws are not about modified cars - only listed standard cars, because there are not supposed to be cars modified enough to meet the law's category limits anyway. If you have a modified car that falls into those power limits you're already in trouble anyway. What is wrong is the bullshit on-line "test" to get the upgrade, instead of any actual work and training.
    • Meh Don't have Facebook anymore but watched a YouTube about it, they also talked about them not being able to use and "sports" modes, not really sure how they would enforce that apart from logging the Db for the cars that have exhaust valve activation in sports mode Apart from all the high end sports cars and supercars that make the sort of power they are talking about standard, I cannot see it bothering anyone else, unless of course road side tests now include having a dyno and scales on site to test the power output vs weight What is it? 500hp per ton? And if the only additional cost is $60 or so, as the video stated, I cannot see that being a war stopper for the people that outlay a few hundred thousand dollars on a performance car In fact, I see it would be a ego boost for some, because they have a "special" drivers licence for a "special"person with a "special" car And if I did have a modified car that made over the limit, there's no way in hell I would apply for a "special" licence, I could see the authorities checking your licence against your rego, so if old mate applied for a licence, but owns a, say, R33 Skyline, that may trigger an inspection of said car as to why, and how, that old mate has a R33 that would fit the bill of making over 500hp per ton Again, meh, not something I believe will be a real issue to 99.9% of people
