Stock Bov, After Market Bov

[##r32skyline##]

i just ionstalled a fmic on my r33 gtst, the intercooler had a after market bov near the bottom right piping of the intercooler. what do i do with the stock bov? can i have both of then running?

i have driven it with both on and it works fine and makes a wicked sound, but i dont think i should leave it like this!

sorry if i have used the wrong terms as i am new to this"" is the stock air pressure outlet called a bov or wastegate? anyway thanks

ps. i know that after market bov are illegal, so i dont need to be told 100 times!!!!

Generally best to block off the stock valve if you want to hear the aftermarket one. Just cut a thin piece of aluminium and put it where the gasket is between the stock BOV and the crossover pipe.

You wont hurt anything by running both valves, just that the stock one will usually open (and relieve alot of the pressure) before the aftermarket one will open.

PS. Search and Read- that is the way to greatness.
