Hy guys, i have an r34 gtt with stock bov, which is plumback. if i was to disconect the recirc pipe off it, and block it off, therefore venting it to atmo, is that what it would be??

An atmospheric bov?? Can it do damage this way??

Cheers guys.

I think he means block of where the plumb-back pipe is recirculated too. And it won't do any damage however your car will stall. So do not do it. You need aftermarket engine management to run an atmospheric venting BOV without issues stalling. Simple as that.

Try it :) , it will be a nice learning experience

You cant vta a stock r33/34 bov. I only JUST made it out of my street before it stalled and died :worship:

If you want vta, buy a real vta bov.

and the factory ones were never meant to run like this.

This thread should be locked and the OP banned, and forced to sell his car and never own a turbo again.

But give it a go, let me know how many women dive into your car naked when they hear the fully sic whoosh.

Can it do damage this way??

Getting back to the original question the answer is no.

Most of us will suggest giving this modification a miss as there is nothing to be gained other than a bit of noise and a shitty return to idle/stall from doing it.

It might get the ladeez neked though. :)

Here is another reason why u should not do it...

Depending on your religous beliefs (ie your belief on whether or not the universe is unlimited and therefore infinite) there is only a certain number of english letters (abcdefg etc etc) left on the internet.

So many letters have already been wasted on useless debates regarding this topic!!!....Even if you do this mod and get the same results as the 10,000,000 other people who already have (you would know if you searched first), another tedious debate would ensue and hence, the END of the internet would be that little bit closer...

Think more about the future of our humanity!!! Don't do it!!!

    • Holy shit, I'm glad you brought up the battery issue and I'm glad I asked about measuring it. Old battery was at a healthy 12.82V in the morning with the car turned off. Removed the fuel pump fuse, clamped the multimeter on at min/max/average and cranked for ~3 seconds. It dropped down to 8.30V. So yeah, not surprising it struggled that much. Picked up a fresh battery from supercheap and it's ridiculous. Haven't done a cold start yet, but man, even with a warm start the difference is night and day. I can't believe I lived with this for so long. Just blamed it on it being an old modified car. Went with Century because convenient. If they are shit it'll be a future me problem. But just in case I set up a reminder for 30 months - 8 weeks to check on the battery state and get a warranty replacement if necessary. 
    • There's another sensor that sits inside the evaporator, that's a C U N T to get to, but can be done without removing the entire unit. Usually it's not the sensor that dies but the actual capacitor in the circuit (part of the plug that dies).  
    • Putting the climate control CU into diagnostic mode is independent of the ECU. You just have to do the dance prescribed in the manual. No, I do not know what the dance is. I have an R32, so use the dance in the R32 manual. On older cars, I would have said "no, the ECU should not affect whether the A/C works".... but for an R34 that might be wrong. I don't recall the detail, but there was extra mods required to make my R32 A/C work against the R34 ECU. The R34 ECU apparently gets involved in the running of the A/C more than earlier cars did. Theoretically, if the PFC is a true plug in, then it should just work the way that the original ECU does - wrt A/C. But there's always scope for them to have not cared. Nope. Pressure switch out = getting the fridgey out to pump the gas out before pulling the switch. The switch really cannot sense gas pressure unless it is up against the gas.
    • Hi guys, thanks for the replies.  I will have to wait till summer to test properly, but it short cycles both when heating and cooling. I’ve ordered a new internal temp sensor that sits under the vent in the steering wheel also, GTSBOY, I have an Apexi FC ecu, I’m assuming I won’t be able to diagnose or would it still work? Could the ecu be causing the problem??   the pressure switch is quite cheap I will get a new one and try it out, hopefully it doesn’t require purging the refrigerant again?
