hey all i know a few of us have had this problem but i thought i would give it one more go with the bov on my r33gtst if u dissconect it y does the engine stall when u come to an intersection and y do u loose like 2 psi of boost .

another qustion i installed the bleed type boost controller and i get like 3 psi boost spike it that because one hose is connected to the other side of the cooler rather than b4 it so it cant adjust properly and how come there is so much turbo lag when blocking off the bov if anyone knows my problem let me know cheers

hey pimpenr33 my mate did this to and his stalled a couple of times. There is so much lag because the bov is there to reduce a bit of that lag what builds up wen u let go of the accelerator because the air stays in the pipe with nowhere to go and pushes back onto the turbo i think thats right isnt it guyz? And the reason it stalls is because of the position of the bov in da skylines i think it sucks in extra air or something like that im not 100% tho

This has been covered many times past. The search button would answer all your questions and more.

Last time i go into it.

Its stalls and the ECU expects the BOV to be there. Its a fuelling related issue.

You shouldnt loose any boost at all

There is lag and the turbo slows down a lot more WITHOUT a BOV as the air does have to go somewhere when you close the throttle, and thats backwards

    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃
    • You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position. 
    • You talking about the ones in the photo above? I guess that could make sense. Fixed (but flexible) line from the point up above down to the hubcap thingo, with a rotating air seal thingo. Then fixed (but also still likely flexible) line from the "other side" of the transfer in the hub cap thingo up to the valve stem on the rim. A horrible cludge, but something that could be done. I'd bet on the Unimog version being fed through from the back, as part of the axle assembly, without the need for the vulnerable lines out to the sides. It's amazing what you can do when you have an idea that is not quite impossible. Nearly impossible, but not quite.
