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?

      I've unfortunately never been as they're on the complete other side of the continent and another country that isn't currently letting us in as easily as they use to. I even heard their stop signs over there actually say "Stop" instead of "Arret". If I decided to trek the 48h drive, I wouldn't know when or where to stop haha. Whenever I order parts from UP Garage, I order from Japan as it's cheaper. Same with GKTech... oddly enough, it's cheaper shipped from Australia then it is the US.  UP Garage Japan operates their US leg though, unlike Tomei. If Tomei JPN had the power to close down Tomei USA, I'm sure it would be done in a day. They're two completely separate entities. Tomei JPN messed up somewhere originally agreeing to its creation and got sacked big time.

      I asked someone about this and he told me about the Audi 1.8T engine. But I think it would be difficult to swap

      I don't know that machine specifically, but I'd personally go for something with a little more kick than 130amp. Around up to 180 would be good. At the 6mm range, you're really pushing the machine hard and don't have a long period you can run for with out needing to give it a rest. Lots of MIG machines come with a regulator and hose. A lot will come with a starter roll of wire too, but it isn't too expensive to buy. I'd recommend NOT buying a massive roll too, as you don't want it sitting around FOREVER in the machine between uses and potentially going to shit. For thin sheet metal, get a roll of 0.6mm if you're doing over 3mm and above, switch over to 0.8mm wire. Even by 2mm you'd probably really want to switch. As for gas battle, it's all swap and go style now. You'll pay a bottle deposit, and then X amount to swap for a full one. I think it's like $200 or $300 for a D Size bottle upfront as "deposit", and like $110 to $150 per swap. My D size CO2/argon bottle lasts a fair bit of welding on the MIG. And I run an E size bottle on the TIG. For DIY MIG, stick with a D size bottle. If you really start to get into a LOT of welding and doing it really regularly, then upgrade. If you're like most DIY car guys, one D bottle will last you 2 or 3 years easily. I think I've been on my current bottle about 5 years. It is starting to get low, but I've been smashing it a lot more the last 6 months.

      SR20s came with cars like the Bluebird and Primera, but the RB20 never came. The ones in Turkey were either brought in specially or from abroad. That's why RBs aren't as common as SRs. And if a part breaks or I need to replace it when doing maintenance, it's harder to find parts for RBs.

      I would suggest equally difficult to find, perhaps edging to the SR. Turkey has almost exclusively Euro market cars, some Korean, few Japanese other than pedestrian shite. I guess they're probably losing the fight against Chinese shit like we are now too. I would vote for a BMW V8, found in a 540i in a wrecking yard somewhere in Deutschland (or possibly Albania).
