Flutter is caused by the lack of a BOV. Theres another 11ty billion page debate thread on whether its dangerous or not.

true, but a BOV that is too tight will not open under low boost situations and give you flutter, however it will open when you are on full boost

I hate it when people come in and just say go with stock, whats wrong with personalizing your cars sound??? Yes stock may be fine but that doesn't mean he cant get something that sounds different.

Some people don't like blow off valves and that's their preference but they shouldn't shoot down someone wanting one.

If your wanting a decent basic blow off sound with flutter down low revs id recommend the Greddy RS or the new RZ.

Really good bovs and you can tighten it to what suites your preference or plumb it back if you want.

Ah ok, I hadnt heard of doing it like that.

I got defected for BOV VTA a couple of months ago around the corner from the erd head office :happy: should I have contested it?

OP: I have a Tial 50mm sounds good just a nice quick exiting of air no silly putchuu chu cheeeee ft ft chu

If your car is stock why do you want to chang it?

Thats funny Anna copped a atmo bov defect in the sil80 just around the corner from ERD too, they must all sit at Yatala Pies and wait!

dude there messing with you

the flutter although it sounds great it actualy doing damage to you turbo!!!.

if you have your bov spring too loose it doeasnt vent properly so the air is forced back through your turbo (the wrong way ) to the

doooo dooo do do dod do do noise you hear is the blades of your turbo cutting through the air .

as for bov increasing power im no expert but if that were true it would be stated in the sticky about skyline power mods .

Awh nu someones sarcasm detector is busted, PS air doesnt go backwards through turbos, the sound you hear is what heppens when the turbo is pumping more air than the engine can swallow so yes the air stops flowing but it doesnt go backwards.

And if it is not opening at low boost you know it isnt opening at idle wich should avoid a lot of the stalling problems if you run it to atmosphere.

why not.... when people put atmo bov's on their street cars just for noise/wank factor they draw attention from the police which in turn makes all of our lives harder.

Id agree with that.

Personally i think the stock BOV sounds like a sack of crap with a pod filter. But thats just me. I stuck to the stock airbox for a while because of it. But even with the stock airbox, it still sounds pretty horrible.

I came accross a brand new Genuine GReddy RS for a ridiculous price. Thats the only reason i bought it. Im quite fond of the sound and managed to tune the richness more or less out of it. Flutters a bit with low rpm, but nothing to worry about.

BOV's are not the reason cops target these kind of cars, And is buying a nice sounding exhaust a "wank factor?" no, theres nothing wrong with making your car sound the way you want.

Some BOV's sound like absolute crap and some are really nice, hense the reason for these kind of threads.

and if its illegal in your area then don't get one. simple

Hard. ive just gone back to the factory airbox after having an HKS pod, sounds 100% better and has more response.

Factory r33 series 2 and r34 turbos sound like poo through a pod.

Id agree with that.

Thats a very similar reason to why I changed mine, I dont like the sound of the stock one and I got a Greddy Type RS (Copy but, not genuine) for really cheap brand new. Mine is plumbed back, Sounds a bit like a SSQV but a bit more original.

I get peoples points but, theres alot of people that go buy blow off valves thinking they will get power gains and look heaps sick but end up with a stalling car that chews fuel.

No, they are not THE reason.... but they don't help... and they are not required for most applications like an exhaust is....

for a car to make, lets say 300rwkw (as that's the new 200rwkw) you NEED an exhaust, however the stock bov is totally fine in 99% of applications

i am running the stock bov with an HKS 2835 and it has seen 20psi all day every day for over 2 years now, and has been on a couple of excursions to 30psi when a vac line popped... never missed a beat

also... why do you think the cops always look for a bov when they pull you over? its because they hear atmo bov's from across entire city blocks and it attracts their attention... the wrong kind of attention... for no reason other than sounding fully sick

Yeh i understand where your coming from. so that covers the performance side of things, but the OP wanted to know the best sounding BOV also.

TBH im just sick of people knocking blow off valves, getting a nice sounding one does NOT make you a poser or a wanker or whatever.

I just want my car to sound nice and the way i want it.

And im in NZ so cops dont give 2 sh*ts about blow off valves. and ive never been pulled over for the sake of having the car i do

If you have aftermarket turbo, block off your blow off and get the flutter going. Everyone on here pretends that they hate it when really in my opinion, its the best sound. Just 'cos someone wants flutter doeskin give you a free ticket to bag and abuse a member.

wait guys are bovs illigal even if you get them plumbed back????????

my gtt is fitted with a ssqv along the cooler piping blowing in the atmo, so i just bought a plumb back nipple to connect a hose from it back to wer the stock bov plumb back pipe is.

sooo wat im doing now will make the bov leagal and no chance of defect on the bov???

    • The old manifold was quite under the GTR strut brace.  The new manifold is quite [unknown] the GTR strut brace. The GTR strut brace was needed to clear the bonnet vents. The Old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, but not the bonnet vents. The old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, and the new bonnet without vents. But I am hoping the GTR strut brace clears the new manifold :p
    • On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.
    • So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.
    • This seems like a pointless exercise. There is no E30 availability. Ongoing availability of E85 should not be assumed. Flex-fuel is the only sensible approach, so you can use E85 when and where you can get it, 98 when that's al you can get, and anything in between as you fill it up and drain it down. And if that means replacing the pumps, fitting a flex capable sensor/ECU/whatever has to be done to these Renault shitboxen, then.....so be it?
