Hey,

Had a search but couldn't find any relevant information.

I am having a few upgrades done, and installing a haltech premium ecu. This wil be running a Map sensor, so i can get rid of the AFM, but i can't find an intake pipe that includes the crancase vent return that would be long enough to eliminate the AFM. I have an atmospheric SSQV Bov, so don't need that return pipe.

The options i believe I have are,

1) Install a breather filter and have the crackcase vent straight to atmosphere and buy a universal 2.5" intake pipe

2)Have a custom stainless intake pipe made

3)Buy a silicon piping kit, block off the BOV return and extend with more silicone piping.

Any input on this would be great

Thanks

you mean a pipe like this replace this bit where the afm was

i have one like that, except mine has bov return as well and are at a 45 degree angle so they are directed towards the turbo (dont know about the crank case vent but there is a thread around here some where about the bov return need to be pointing towards the turbo not on a 90 like yours) then i just use 2x3" 45 degree silicone bends trimmed to get the right angles to hook up between the 3540 and afm.

The angle is only important if there is an afm

    • For a daily just run Akebono ceramic pads. That's what they're optimized for. Obviously don't try to run it on track or anything like that.
    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
