Just thought I'd clarify for you guys wanting to block bov the coke can does the job perfecty. I did it today just for Shit and giggles and took me a whole 15 min just make sure you trace the bottom of bov on can and cut around the trace place cut out in between bov and the intake pipe mount Put back together and vwallahh you have flutter tutututu.

Btw this was performed on a standard bov and with a k&n pod filter.

Hahahahaha that's funny as madaz. skyhi its short for a blow off valve it is a valve that allows boost pressure leave your turbo system also makes A tsuuuuuu sound with standard bov and pod filter and you can get after market bov that makes a more defined tsuuuu sound

also makes A tsuuuuuu sound with standard bov and pod filter and you can get after market bov that makes a more defined tsuuuu sound

so, this tsuuuu sound, what does it do? like, i see the original bov has more u's after it therefore its a longer kind of sound right?

Some how this trick saved my a** tonight when the cops were doing their "part 2" at a RBT tonight. They were after a atmo BOV and they watched it while they got me to rev the hell out of the engine. All they heard was tsuuuuuuu from the turbo, then they were like that's ok!

Sometimes i feel sorry for them as they obviously did not have a clue, twice they looked over the engine bay before they asked "Where is the Blow off valve?"

My god they over looked the boost controller and solenoid, FMIC, POD, Exhaust, rim spacers, etc. Makes me think i could of had a high mount turbo and NOS kit and they still would just be after a BOV.

Madaz, they were pretty good about the whole thing but i remembered what i read sometime ago about these things. Which was not to offer too much info about anything in or on the car.

So that was you scandyflick out the front of Mayne Pharma that time? Its on the camera's man and she was actually 45!

    • I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs. 
    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster. 
    • Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
    • That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect 
    • i cant get them all in 1 screenshot unfortunately as i just dont know how to move things around tbh, but they are all from the same log and the line crosses at the same point for all of them
