RB25DET REPLACE stock bov with GFB

[Boostn247]

I just took off my stock rb25det bov last night to replace it with GFB Mach 1

its gone on no problems, but the recirculating pipe back to turbo, or the rubber tube that covers the old b.o.v so that it goes to airbox is now left open...

i called gfb to get the rubber BUNG to plug it up, but i started car last night, & yea it was idleing fine, but when revved, it started to sound as though it was chugging along,

the bung is being delivered to me today my gfb, but can i still drive to the ervo in it for milk & bread & shit, or THE PLUG MUST BE IN PIPE? :Oops: ??? NOT SURE?

Dont drive it without the Plumb back pipe blocked, otherwise you might have some problems. Im sure you can find many ways in blocking it.

FWIW, a coke bottle lid fits...

If you have a vacuum leak after the Air Flow Meter.

The car will run like shit if at all.

Seal up any holes left from the old re-cirulation type BOV if you are not using it anymore.

Also make sure the spring tension on the BOV is set correctly or it will leak there as well.

cheers mate

yea, the bov seems to work fine, not holding boost as good as the stock b.o.v

i thinkk ill have to fiddle with the spring tension somemore..

when i gear change in boost, theres an actual car shudder which was not normal?

it comes on boost harder than b4 though, so i think a bit more fiddling round, i hope thats it...but all i did was take off old b.o.v & bolt new one?

cars are fiddly sh*ts
