^^ Nah he's serious, have a read of his other threads. *shakes head*

Thien, you cant get the sound of venting to atmosphere without the problems that come along with it, unless you change over to an ecu that does not use an AFM.

Thanks mate... and yeah, I'm not too technically-minded when it comes to all this stuff... silly me...

I guess, I'll have to live with it then.... either lose the sound or have the sound with stalling issues.

Thanks mate.

Would a 50/50 plumb back BOV work?

if you really want the psssht, try full atmo on a hybrid type bov. if it gives you trouble in full atmo (which plenty of skylines run without issue) then go 50/50. you should be fine. if that fails, you can always set it up as fully plumbed.

for the guy that asked earlier how its done:

fully plumbed = block one side, attached other to recirc hose.

50/50 = trumpet on one side, other side to recirc hose.

fully atmo = block recirc, use 1 or 2 trumpets on bov

here's mine 50/50

fully plumbed back, as it is now, . the trumpet is replaced with a supplied cap from GFB

btw, if it didnt come with the car, i highly doubt i would've needed or bought it.

Is it just me, is does it seem that most people don't give two hoots about BOV's... and don't car about the ssshhtttt sound... would it be fair to say that everyone is over this?

Or is it due to stalling issues which is common in R33's?

where can you get that done? whats is actually changed?

It's dodgey mate.

you take your stock bov off.

and put it in a VISE.

then crush it a little.

this preloads the spring that is in it which makes it hold more pressure as it takes more pressure to push the spring.

it doesn't actually make any more sound though.

Yes that is correct.

we give no shit for bov sound.

put the stocker on there and stop talking about it.

its true

i also give very little shit for the sound, so i ordered the cap from gfb to block the fuccker off.

i remember driving a 300zx with twin super dooper trumpet ultra mega farkoff bovs. i was over it in 20 mins. i mean even at 2k it was going AAAAAPPSHCOOOO. enough already, i just wanna drive.

Mate, have a think about what youre asking.

Why would you want to modify your car in a way where the *only* benefit will be more noise (which will in turn give you more attention from police), and the downside to it is that it can and almost always will make your car run worse? (In the case of vehicles running airflow metres)

Your stock one does its job, which is to prolong turbocharger life, not make noise.

Dont but an atmospheric one, its pure wank and a waste of money.

DONT PUT THE STOCKER BACK ON MAN.

buy an AEM quality plumb back bov. stockers are shit. they leak and fail to seal. think about it.

what would u do if u were pushed up and down BILLIONS of simes :S

Would a 50/50 plumb back BOV work?

No it will not work.

Your AFM measures how much air is going into the engine, the ecu then uses that measuement of air going in to work out hom much fuel put in.

When you put on a BOV that vents air back to atmosphere (makes thats loud pschhh) your computer (thinking the air is still in the engine) puts in way too much fuel. This results in stalling, stuttering, big black exhaust smoke and a generally shithouse driving experience.

A 50/50 BOV still dumps 50% of the air that the ecu expects, so it still causes a problem. Just leave it stock FFS!

*On a side note I changed my spark plugs on the weekend and forgot to put the BOV return pipe back on, as i changed gears i got the atmo bov noise. But it made the car feel so sluggish on gear changes, spat so much black smoke I cant imagine how anyone could deal with that just for a little ghey sound*

This is twice I've seen you post this bad advice.

what is AEM?

stock bovs are rubbish, leaking heaps of shit, done a trip 2 brissy other weekend, running stock bov, f**kin heap of shit leaking the whole time on light throttle could hear it just in vacum, so fkn annoying

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
