Afm Relocation To Behind Turbo?

[schnorky]

Hey sau ppl just wondering if I can move the afm from infront of the turbo to somwere behind the turbo, would it stuff up or would I need a tune after ? I have a type rs greddy bov atmospheric nd my mate said my car would jump in revs because the stock bov was plumbed back would do you guys think cheers

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

i think you should keep the stock bov and throw the police attention siren in the bin.... or sell it

stock bovs are fine.... mine has held 21psi for a couple of years now

Lol I no it's a good one but just the same psscchhh is really pissing me off what somthing new lol no not movivnt the afm on the dump, just before where the bov goes on the intake piping will it damage there or run ok if it's there

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

all the vl boys with hektik dose run it in the cooler piping

[Beer Baron]

moving the AFM too close to the turbos compressor intake can and most likely will cause you problems. yes it's possible to mount it somewhere else in the intercooler piping but with a standard ecu you may have some problems. trust me, nissan mounted it as far away from the turbo intake as possible for a reason, it was just so you'd have an easy way to bolt on a pod filter...

Yer I seen the vl boys do that I want dose but it fcuks up the turbo doesn't it?

[schnorky]

And I don't get how ppl say it surge is bad but then again ppl run no bovs and last over 5 years and still going strong

[TiTAN]

this kind of compressor surge is bad.

[schnorky]

Yer I've seen that clip before , so there's a ok surge and a bad surge.. So If I relocate the afm on the cool side of the intercooler would It work the same ? I want to get little bit of dose

[Sheriff Wan]

Jeez I dont like this...

Compressor surge is a bad thing FULL STOP - I dont care how many guys have said they are running no BOVs with fully sick dose's and their turbos are fine, its not good.

Why do you need to stuff around with what Nissan engineers did for a reason? Do you think they were sitting around thinking "where should we put the AFM?" - I doubt it, much like the BOV - Just leave it alone and spend the time/money on something useful.

[bozodos]

why did Nissan choose not to put a recirculating BOV on the Cefiro RB20DET then if it was so bad?

[schnorky]

Lol.. I just want little bit of dose, sounds hot ever car like 180s 200s skylines evos have it

literlty every car I see on the road have it espically the vls

And what exactly are you basing this off of? Please don't quote where you read it on the internet to me either. Theory and real world application are two different things.

OP--if you are interested in putting your MAF in you intercooler piping, google "blow through MAF" and see what comes up. A lot of americans do it. I don't know how well it works with out tuning, but there is some good info out there about it.

If you want dose and obvisouly you don't seem to care what happens - just remove your BOV you'll get fully hektik sound bro and all da babes will love it!

[paulr33]

this has been covered to death, please dont bring back an old topic such as bov's and compressor surge

[PM-R33]

Ahh good old BOV discussions, we should just have a section on SAU dedicated to BOV's considering the same topic gets discussed on a daily basis and ends up with people arguing whether compressor surge is bad or not.

[schnorky]

Sheriff wan don't be hating lol

I'll look up the maf sensor in goole , yes there's heaps of thread on the Internet but som saying it's ok one says it's bad and a lot of dumbshits that think they know everything

the whole point in forums is to ask a question and let other skyline users reply first hand,

I just wanted to hear bout what you guys had to say

[bozodos]

Like I said, some RB20 (at least) engines had a BOV, some do not. Coincidence?
