Not Another Silly Atmo Bov Question

Hi Ya'll,

I have a stock plumb back on my s2 r33... It has a trust front mount, 11 psi of boost, high-flow turbo...

When I change in-between gears it seems to hesitate and kangaroo a little bit... Wondering if this is because the BOV isn't opening fully and the pressurised air isn't getting out properly??? The BOV does make a bit of a fluttering noise...

Cheers

does spound like it is not opening fulling forcing the boosted air thru the turbo causing a flutter.

Yeah it kinda does... The car bucks when I change gear, so it I was worried that something is causing the airflow to be interupted

I had a similar issue although not exactly... I went to a Nissan/Jap wreckers, got me a BOV from a soon to be wrecked R33 gtst(you can pick em up in the For Sale section as well), bolted her on and presto problem solved. Maybe you can service your current BOV.

IANAM (I am not a mechanic) :(

what ecu do you have?

What AFM do you have?

If you have a stock one of either, I can guarantee the problem lies there

You my friend have hit the donkey on the head. I have stock AFM and ECU.... Is it the extra pressurised air in the system (due to larger turbo and front mount) causing the ECU to behave like a pork chop? If so, hows that? I'm not hitting R&R or fuel cut....

There you go

I had a stock AFM and powerfc and I was getting the exact same problem between gear changes etc too.

But just remember the the R&R hits at about 10+psi on the standard turbo, which means it would be 9psi \ 8psi on a Highflow because it is moving more air volume.

You really need to get some form of aftermarket management - so go and pick up yourself a Powerfc and a Z32 AFM, and 90% of your problems will go away.

how much power u making from that setup?

At the moment I am making somewhere around 190rwkw... Although I think the dyno I ran it on was reading high.... So not sure, somewhere around that though I think....

But just remember the the R&R hits at about 10+psi on the standard turbo, which means it would be 9psi \ 8psi on a Highflow because it is moving more air volume.

I hit for some reason R&R about 12psi... Well at least I hit MORE R&R at that stage.... The car seems ok atm...

I am planning on putting a GReddy EMU in within the next couple of months.... Hopefully that will let me finish off the engine mods for the time being and go about my way with the suspension...

Will get ECU!!!! I PROMISE!!!! Dont quite get how that is causing the air to bounce around though... Surely it is a mechanical issue rather then a tuning issue... THOUGH - I know there are issues caused by having mods and no ECU and that I'm sure I have some of them, dont understand how it would be casuing this issue

will drop it this afternoon... Heres a question then: If I drop it back, and it is presently R&Ring, will I immediately notice that it isnt R&Ring? Or does it take time for the ECU to learn?

      Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys

      Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels

      Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

      I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.

      Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
