Vintage Grumble Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Yeh, I can imagine the BOV venting measured air to atmosphere would cause it to run pretty rich. I'm under no illusion that its going to be shit on gas, but hey, gotta pay the cost to be the try hard mid lyfe crisis flat peaker guy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyfive Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 MAP or MAF? I can't recall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Its a MAF, so by my way of thinking, its measured the air that's gone in, slapped in the correct amount of gas, and then the BOV fires and dumps a pile of that air, leaving too much gas? It smells a bit rich, and shoots a lot of flames, so guess its rich. Will have to sort a nice plum back system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyfive Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Correct. For some reason I had it in my head that these had MAP only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 I guess you plumb it back in near the filter/behind the MAF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 whip the vac line off the top of the BOV, and crank the spring up a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 Just so it vents less often? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vintage Grumble Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 Ohhhhhhhhh. That first vid lol'ed me me greatly. Gon get my flutter on/compressor surge is quite bad for the turbo/bearings is it not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 ALSO, is there any benefit to plumbing it back from the throttle body side, over just plumbing it from just after the turbo back into the intake that's rite next to it? I guess it will just warm the charge up a bit. BUT it would save a fair bit of piping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spencer Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Yea I'm 100% on the no BOV bandwagon, the turbo will love it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it will just warm the charge up a bit. BUT it would save a fair bit of piping.  6 of 1/half a dozen of the other. Its still going to do the job no matter where it is. Turbo side for the win on shorter piping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spencer Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Just remove it, serious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ODB Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 You remove it and the throttle closes where does all the air go? That fast moving air??? Yeah back into your turbo causing compressor surge - plumb it back in and your turbo wheel keeps free wheeling and in theory comes on boost quicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
