G'day guys,

I.ve just bought my first skyline. It's a 1992 r32.

It's got no engine mods at all, just a 3" cat back and is really quiet. I'm wondering if i take the plumb back pipe off the stock BOV an plug it off. And let the stock BOV vent to atmo will that cause any problems?

This is just temporary until i can get a decent BOV.

Your advise would be greatly appreciated.

Hey

It will not boost properly as the stock blow off valve leaks air into the plumb back pipe which then, as you would know , joins back in to the intake pipe

It recirculates the air to keep the car running smooth, prevent stalling and surging through gear changes and when RPM drops rapidly

For the stock blow off valve to function properly it needs to be plumbed back at all times, if you block the plumb back pipe and have the blow off valve vent to atmo you will be causing a leak, therefor the car won't run/boost as it should so probably not the best idea

You can block the blow off valve on the cross pipe, block the plumb back pipe and block the vacuume line, that will work but probably won't get the sound your after
