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 ;)

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:

    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.  
    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
