Hey guys,

I searched the fourms and found nothing on this. (but if there is somthing, don't hate me)

I've got an r33 sreies two and a put the GFB Stealth FX bov on it.

Too my dissapointment when it is as loud as it can go the car stalls cause the piston doesn't shut fast enough. So I turned it to as quiet as it could go and the problem is fixed, but what is the point of having it if it is as loud as my stock one was.

The adjustment works like a ratchet and I adjust it one click away from quietest and it still almost stalls. F**king Shit!!!

Even when I tighten the spring tension, it is a bit better but I get conperssion surge, which I heard is bad, and my car runs like a dogg.

So my question is, Has anyone delt with this and what did u do?

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix it?

Is compression surge bad? (sorry, there is no direct answer on the forums)

thanks guys

Peace out

if it is set on full atmo, than that is why your car is stalling because cars with afm's dont like atmo BOV's

set it on 50/50 at least. if it still stalls raise the idle a touch to something like 800-900rpm which will give you some slack

compressor surge is bad from most people say but others say no problem. so who knows

alot of people with say stick with the standard bov but thats prob not what you want to hear

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
