Ok So I Just Broke Another Bov

[DjeMz]

when i first got my car, bumped up the boost a bit, i snapped the bit where the bolt goes onto the bov..

so when i got my car tuned n yada yada i got it blocked off with a plate because i was told it would brake again if i got another stock r33gtst bov..

basically i would like to know how much boost a stock r33 bov can handle..

cars running excellent but im getting a bit greedy n want to bump up the boost even more..

i want would like either a quite bov... much like a stock item.. which one should i go for (keeping in mind the whole budget thing)

or i have always been a fan of the blitz bovs... but ppl say they pop n stall much like u blocked off the bov..

ideas?

get gtr bov mate should sort your problem

how could you break a bolt that holds a BOV on?

I have a GT3076 pushing 20psi on the stock BOV and I have never had any problems.

he may mave different circumstances etc.

he could have more corosion than normal.

and all metals dont age the same....who knows if it was even the stock bolt. might be a hex bolt replacement from bunnings

:S

maybe it was too tight and you fucd it, so when it heated and cooled it cracked

probably... king chrome ftw

so should i try another but dont tighten it so much?

or how hard is it to put on a gtr bov? straight bolt on?

[jeffworld2]

well sounds like you broke the bolt, not because it was too weak for the boost or anything.

i recomend finding another gtst one. cheaper than gtr and all the same to you operation wise
