Rb25 bov upgrade

[r33canada]

The shop my car is at advised me that my stock bov would leak with the power that will be ran.

What would be a decent upgrade with retaining recirculation.

I have read before that using a gtr stock unit is an upgrade.

Am i incorrect?

Thank you.

Ahh no

Have a look at GFB, lots of people using them.

GTR is a much more robust unit and bolts straight on but the outlet is larger and would have to be stepped down to your recirc pipe. (I happen to have one for sale at a small price)

I used a Turbosmart Kompact, seems to be fine at 18psi & 320RWKW

^^ my experience with that product differed. Might be capable of holding more boost but the size of the valve is much smaller, doesn't blow-off (whole point of it being there in the first place) anywhere near as well as stock. Experienced by turbo dose at exactly same boost level - 12psi-ish- where the stock one would vent just fine at.

Small boost, BOV meh..

Running 2 bar,  then yeah why not.

Well went with a tial. Im running a holset he341 at about 18ish

1.3bar stock BOV is fine. I have a mate running one with nearly 2bar of boost. All he did was block off the internal bleed hole.

Hope you're not running an AFM with that whoosh valve of yours.

FWIW I don't run one, one less thing to worry about when looking for leaks.
