Didn't see that in the listings, and the car it is going on already had a BOV plumbed up that works well. A billet 16G is something we were talking about that we thought would be good, didn't know they had them!

Nonetheless price was a concern and it would be good to see how the billet ones perform and lasts before taking a punt at them, I am sure the 16G will be good for the time being :)

That turbo has me fking interested LOL!

I dont think it will fit up with the stock SR manifold though. I think the BOV will foul.

I shouldn't look at this stuff though, I have a proper mazworx Vband manifold at home for a real setup lol

The bov is mounted on the pressure side and as you can see in the pic it plumbs back directly in the intake

Look closely in the intake it has a slot where it plumbs back

i beleive that slot on the intake is for wastegate pressure...the slot on the BOV is for pressure also...what I dont understand is where the BOV is venting to..does it just vent atmo somehow because thats the only way I can see it working..

ed* ok looking at other pictures I can see those little holes around the side of the BOV are vents...

Update: Booked in with JEM for the 5th of June to drop the car off.

Hoping for 230ish rwkw on 22-23psi TD05-18G (Nistune/Walbro/555/38mm E/G)

With 10x better response then the Td06h20g (fail I/G) which made 213rwkw @ 18psi (IIRC)

Wish me luck. Will post dyno results/sheet when its done :)

Good stuff! Nice choice in tuner too ;)

what are the thoughts on these?

i don't come on here often but i couldnt find it in the last few pages

seems like the kando product a lot of people were waiting for

That BOV vents to atmosphere. The port on the inside is where the pressure goes in, BOV opens and you can see those holes machined into the BOV all the way around the neck of the BOV, out comes your air. Pretty innovative design.

Potentially quite good.

I believe STATUS has a result for one of these, perhaps PM him or check his FB page as I think it was posted there.

The combo appears to be a T04E stage 3 turbine with a 20G compressor, which has quite a good 'theoretical match' to the RB25. Somewhere between a GTRS and a GT30 is a reasonable way of thinking about it.

Not sure of its worth considering the infinite feedback available on the HG highflow, especially when considering the after sales support.

No that kind of thing can't work, DP said so!

That slot can't be pressure cause it's on the inlet side it's mounted right on top of the outlet so it will be getting its pressure from there

Those holes much be the design of it

Its a Volvo S40 housing man, normally its meant to have a little poppet valve on it which DOES vent back through that slot.

For some reason Kando has produced the new ones with a 50/50 BOV which vents to the return slot before the turbo inlet AND atmo at the same time. Like those 50/50 turbosmart ones.

Heres a photo of the OEM Volvo turbo with the OEM Volvo BOV which will clear things up for everyone:

    • I was poking through the R34 wiring diagrams vs R33 and noticed that the R34 has proper headlight relays while the R33 is like the R32 and sends full headlight power through the headlight switch. I'm not afraid of wiring but I really would like to do this in a way that looks OEM (clipping into open positions on the OEM relay box) and also unlike the factory wiring which interlocks the high beam and low beam on the halogen series 1 GTR headlights I want to make it such that turning on the high beams keeps the low beams on as well. Any advice on how to locate the specific connectors + crimp terminals + relays I need? I was thinking one NO relay for low beams and another for combined high + low running off the factory high beam headlight connector. I don't really want to splice into a crusty old probably discontinued factory harness so fully reversible is my goal here.
    • Pretty sure they run the same engine as the Q50 hybrid which specifies 95 RON.  I ran 98 in mine for a while, but it made no difference in performance or economy, so I have been using 95 for the last few years.  I have never hit 6.0L/100km, but have returned mid to high 6 on the highway.  Being a hybrid, fuel economy is a lot more dependant on how you drive it.  At 110km/h, mine never goes into EV mode on the highway, so returns closer to 7.5L/100. urban driving can return low 8s if you are careful or over 10 if you are a bit more enthusiastic on the throttle.
    • About a quarter of what you want to do. It's only R7R, not R&dismantle&replaceparts&reassemble&R. ? It is stock. I already told you, you will NOT have broken those. It's f**king 4th gear for Christ's sake. You just chipped the teeth off.
