New FMIC & Aftermarket BOV, what to do?...

[Anquetil]

Have just received my new Trust FMIC, but am wondering what should be done when it comes to the BOV setup?

This is my current Turbosmart BOV...

And this is the new kit obviously...

Should I go back to stock BOV? (I dont have original parts)

or

Is it possible to get the Trust pipes fabricated for the Turbosmart BOV to fit on? (I think their Aluminium pipes?)

I dont mind the ole "Pssshhhhh" but if it impacts performance it can go.

I also plan to get a 2530/2535 soon, if that has an impact on the setup?

Whats the best thing to do?

Thanks for any help?

Turbosmart sell an adaptor that fits to the stock BOV location just to the left of the throttle body.

You can get a generic adapter from Turbosmart and have that attached to your new pipework by any decent workshop/welder in roughly the same location.

It's easy while the pipes are off the car too, you don't lose the car for a day.

Found this on the trubosmart website.

Looks like it will do...

Thanks

My local workshop said to hook up the IC kit without any BOV attached, then drive it over to them to do some work on the BOV piping adapter, is it safe to drive with no BOV guys? Will it drive at all? It sounds dangerous to me.

The thing is, i'm installing the IC down in Brisbane and will have to drive 100kms back to the workshop.

if it was my car i wouldnt be welding anything to the new pipes.
