so i decided to see what the fuss was about and block off my bov today...

(the car already has a pod in a cold air box and the factory intake piping)

5 mins and 1/2 a coke can later i was off down the street doseing "full hektic sick bro" ZOMG!

tsut tsut sutututututututu... and so on...

the conclusion:

it was the most annoying drive ever and it made absolutely NO difference to the car's performance under ANY conditions (with the one exception of it nearly stalling twice) :(

how people put up with that noise every time you lift you foot i simply do not get... not to mention the looks from passers by!

anyway the car is now de-dose-afyed an i am happy again :banana:

/experiment

well at least you have been on both sides of the fence and now can say you "have done it, its gay, and give it shit." with a backed up experiment

whereas i have never done it but know its gay and am happy to use my 5 1/2 minutes doing something else... probably redtube.com

shhhhhhh!!!....tu...tu...tu..tu.. too!!!.

how about a step by step 'how too' that can be stickied in the "Ricer" section. Save people having to ask all the time.

If you're serious, you only need an empty coke can, or even solo, up to you, cut the top and bottom out, roll it out so that it's like a sheet of aluminium, take out the gasket of the standard bov, trace with a texta, cut away. Install everything back to normal, but have the can thing blocking.

Flutter and stall away!

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
