You only have issues when you do it without having the car tuned my car was stalling before I had it tuned then when its tuned for no bov it doenst stall and runs well
Probably doesnt have AFMs...lol.

my car was not tuned by this stage i didnt even have a ecu or boost controller just removed all the piping as i said and blocked off the bov.

my car had an afm at the time (got a v500 now so no afm)

i think it just depends on ur car and if u block it correctly but as i said i got over it and now have the ssqv

It's driving style related as well.

I didn't have a BOV for ages on a previous setup (stock ECU).

I could drive all day and not have it stall, or i could make it stall by changing how i was driving the car.

EG. If you get med-hard onto the brakes coming to a set of lights and hit the clutch/neutral whilst still moving reasonably quick, car would stall.

If i can in lightly on the brakes and only hit the clutch/neutral as i came to a stop, car would not stall at all.

It's definitely possible for it to stall without a BOV/Factory ECU, and it is also possible for the direct opposite.

There are just to many influencing factors either way. If you take off the BOV and you don't have problems - great.

However don't expect that to be the case in every situation & vice versa

2 things.

1.) if you disable your bov, you will get the sound you want so why do you want to get a metal pipe?

2.) if you do get a metal pipe made, how hard is it to get 2-3 holes drilled and a small pipe welded to it so that all the existing things that you need (breather etc) can be connected to it?

thats the issue im having

i just adjusted my driving style to suit and it never stalls now :(

btu i have a stock bov on with a emanage ultmiate piggyback

i dont get why everyone hates on the noise of them?? i think they sound fantastic.. spose you's all think antilag is shit aswell.

i think there should be more people who can be happier with a simple mod to produce a simple sound.. how is this any stupider than those that want 400hp for no real reason and have nowhere to use it... or want to break a time barrier and spend thousands of dollars for a few milli-seconds.

how many of you guys bagging out the "dose pipe" have a reasonably noisy exhaust?? or are you all under the 90db limit??

the chu chu sound is no more common/easily recognised than a hks ssqv.

you mod your car for you, and only you need to be happy with it.

and blocking off the bov wont give you the same sound.. you need a metal intake pipe to get the full chu chu chu noise.

and i didnt have any problems with stalling..

straight pipe is fine, you dont need a small pipe attatched, your oil breather goes to your catch can, not back into the intake, and the bov is disconnected so its not relevent.

having said that.. you can still get a cool reversion sound by having the bov recirc line enter after the turbo.. not in the intake.

  • Like 1
All depends on where your boost gauge was getting its reading from, if it is at the correct source of the plenum, then no it wouldn't be.

It was actually connected just in front of the throttle body so it only read boost...couldnt be assed t-ing into fpr line and S15 have very few places to hook into...it def showed positive boost pressure on the gauge between gears (like 8-10psi) which would suggest that it held boost in the piping without the BOV?

To do this properly you need to;

1. remove the whole stock intake including the pipes to the bov and oil breathers

2. block/remove bov

3. move the afm onto the cooler pipe (stops stalls and maintains mapping)

4. make your oil breather vent to atmosphere (put a breather filter on it or add a catch can + filter)

5. fit a 2.5" metal pipe 120 cm long to the front of the turbo. Gl fitting a pod in there your power steering pump is in the way, you may want to try a slight bent pipe (I haven’t tried this so I cant say you will get the noise)

I have set this up on two of my mates 33s in the past and the sound is the typical (dolphin/pidgin) noise.

You will loose some power if you are running a standard ecu and can possibly damage the turbo.

That said if you want the noise that is the way to achieve it properly.

And just for the record I don’t run this setup, my 33 is happily running the stock bov and air box :blink:

This should answer the questions. Thread can now be closed.

hey 1.2 meters is abit long isnt it..???

12 cm sounds about right... thanks for the information anyways... this job is allready complete and dosing away...

    • Very nice - I also have a 92 GTST and hardly see any others around these days
    • When I need something else to edit, I use Movavi. A friend who does video editing on a daily basis recommended me) it's an easy video cutter to use for beginners
    • I need to edit some videos for work but I'm not good at all this. Which video editor can you recommend?
    • I think you're really missing the point. The spec is just the minimum spec that the fuel has to meet. The additive packages can, and do, go above that minimum if the fuel brand feels they need/want to. And so you get BP Ultimate or Shell Ultra (or whatever they call it) making promises to clean your engine better than the standard stuff....simply because they do actually put better additive packages in there. They do not waste special sauce on the plebian fuel if they can avoid it. I didn't say "energy density". I just said "density". That's right, the specific gravity (if you want to use a really shit old imperial description for mass per unit volume). The density being higher indicates a number of things, from reduces oxygen content, to increased numbers of double bonds or cyclic components. That then just happens to flow on to the calorific value on a volume basis being correspondingly higher. The calorific value on a mass basis barely changes, because almost all hydrocarbon materials have a very similar CV per kg. But whatever - the end result is that you do get a bit more energy per litre, which helps to offset some of the sting of the massive price bump over 91. I can go you one better than "I used to work at a fuel station". I had uni lecturers who worked at the Pt Stanvac refinery (at the time they were lecturing, as industry specialist lecturers) who were quite candid about the business. And granted, that was 30+ years ago, and you might note that I have stated above that I think the industry has since collected together near the bottom (quite like ISPs, when you think about it). Oh, did I mention that I am quite literally a combustion engineer? I'm designing (well, actually, trying to avoid designing and trying to make the junior engineer do it) a heavy fuel oil firing system for a cement plant in fricking Iraq, this week. Last week it was natural gas fired this-that. The week before it was LPG fired anode furnaces for a copper smelter (well, the burners for them, not the actual furnaces, which are just big dumb steel). I'm kinda all over fuels.
    • Well my freshly rebuilt RB25DET Neo went bang 1000kms in, completely fried big end bearing in cylinder 1 so bad my engine seized. No knocking or oil pressure issue prior to this happening, all happened within less than a second. Had Nitto oil pump, 8L baffled sump, head drain, oil restrictors, the lot put in to prevent me spinning a bearing like i did to need the rebuild. Mechanic that looked after the works has no idea what caused it. Reckoned it may have been bearing clearance wrong in cylinder 1 we have no idea. Machinist who did the work reckoned it was something on the mechanic. Anyway thats between them, i had no part in it, just paid the money Curiosity question, does the oil system on RB’s go sump > oil pump > filter > around engine? If so, if you had a leak on an oil filter relocation plate, say sump > oil pump > filter > LEAK > around engine would this cause a low oil pressure reading if the sensors was before the filter?   TIA
