he has a wideband that reads the same as it did before the bov. Clearly you obviously know more bout this car then I do. Just tellin you what I have witnessed. maybe its an act of god lol Not lookin for an internet battle just info on tmy situation but thanks for your input. I am getting a full dejon ic piping with special ann. blk hks ssq bov already welded on the hot pipe and the resirc hose included. the plactic stock sucks dick anyways + the hard pipe kit looks good w/ result of better flow, which i know you are aware of.
Thanks again lol

 

the thing is if the ecu compensates enough and the bov is actually "tuned" and setup properly or by accident it may not cause any issues you see. He would need to datalog before and after install of the bov to actually see if there was a difference. Im not saying it cant be done properly and work. I'm saying most the people on this forum get it done because they want to hear that stupid noise. Now if they get boost flutter like most the srt4's and dsm's its not working properly. flutter isnt good. Im not trying to start a fight either, your post asking me why it worked seemed slightly aggressive, but **** happens and its the internet. hard to get emotions off text.

I had a ms3 before this and replaced the BPV with a upgraded one. Did data logging to find the right spring and shim combo. Once done it helped a ton to stop boost leak. But that was a bpv not a bov. People that had bov's usually had issues, some got it to work. But no one should really need them seriously, until you go with a bigger turbo, tune and know how to put the right settings on the bov.

 

Guy in the club i am in has hptuner and i am tryin to get someone to help me out w/ sendin me they're data log for the tune. I am not rich and this economy isn't helpin either. Don't worry bout the misunderstanding it happens all day on the site. actually all sites like this are the same when it comes to that lol. i have a question for you though as long as i install the recirc hose w/ this ic piping i will not need to do anythin else to get it runnin correctly?

 

Well you have to "cap" or plate off the bpv on the turbo housing but otherwise sounds like you have the gist. its just some bov/bpv's have spring settings and shims to install, which is what I mean by "tune" or setup the bpv/bov properly. I purchased a dashhawk so I could data log and see what my boost was like, see if I had leaks at wot. Then I would change the shim or spring in the bpv depending on what was happening. Im not sure which model bov you are getting or if it has settings/tuning like that..it must though, they arent really pnp... most have a screw on the top with a spring that you can tighten or loosen so you can change the pressure it releases the air...that would be what I am referring to.

 

the one i have for now is a 50 dollar pos lol we had to install washers to get it to handle 15psi period. Its the HKS ssq bov i havent heard anyone on here havin any problems with them. the bov sounds good loud as **** for a cheap **** but it seems like after i romp on it the ecu gets a signal thats puttin it into limp mode. but this is whats strange if i drive it like a normal sane individual it never acts up drove to columbus w/o any problems. I also ran a 13.92 @ 102.30 yesterday @ the local **** track. i know i can run faster but you dont know how much a hole this track is prep and mait. blows. not funded very well.
