BOV For 300rwkw

[Guest INASNT]

well im hoping it can hold 2 bar of boost, if so, it sounds the trick

I wouldnt be worried about the bov holding 2 bar boost, rather the engine blowing up!

What about the turbosmart plumb back types?

Is the Tyre R plumb back?

[Steve]

Do not buy turbosmart - I have now seen a couple of cases were they leak through the vacuum line (top) and therefore also leak boost. Really not impressed.

**disclaimer** my own experiences, dont want to get into an arguement with the owners of turbosmart BOVs:D

One thing about the Typr R not actually doing much below 14psi... dont forget you can get them with two different std spring tensions, i would be getting the softeer of the springs

[Guest INASNT]

I need to run bout 20psi to get my power goal so i will have to go for the higher tention one

[Steve]

You can also adjust the tension by loosening the nut on the top and then using an allen key and turn it in the direction marked 'hard'. Works quite well, I have mine adjusted to lift over about 0.5bar

[Roy]

I know often theory can sometimes lose out in practice, but looking at how a BOV works when under boost, you have both the spring tension, and the boost signal line ot the head of the BOV stopping it from opening.

Even allowing for the possibly lower boost pressure in the signal line, and delay in pressurising the line, i cant see that the concern about leaking BOV is justified, espcially with the diaphragm setup of the Trust BOVs

I gotta a set which are fine, but I'd run with new one/s 'cause they're adjustable for different app's. For the record, I run 2x Turbosmart Type 2's on mine, and they've been fine.

[Guest INASNT]

I have been told turbosmarts are know to leak?
