ok so i relocated my maf to run the bov.... My tuner did my vacuum lines and it runs fine i just lose boost... So i was driving home today and i did a wide open throttle in third and i steadily lost boost from 25 to 20 in seconds... so my question is how do i run my vacuum lines and im running the bpv also...

any help would be appreciated

 

im no genius on bov's but id say thats your problem

get a block off plate.

 

i have the block off just havent put it on... i have no surge problem so i wouldnt see why i need it

 

blockoff plate. TTR sells a great one.

 

actually i bought one from them just havent put it on

 

i would get on that haha. its either one or the other not both.

 

ok do you know how to route the vacuum lines????

 

I run both bov and bpv...Have done so for about 20k miles...never had an issue. Been tuned by two different tuners and they've never said anything. I had hahns block off plate and it got a bunch of flutter and crap so I got rid of it.

if you are going to run the block off plate...just take the vacuum line from the bpv and put it on the bov

 

like i said i am no genius haha

 

I gotchu.

 

ok then i will try that

 

i had TTR's block off plate and my car hated it, fluttered like hell, i also run the BPV and BOV i just tapped off one of the Vac lines for my BOV and i have my MAF relocated but realized it sucked and my car never ran right so i put it back on my intake and the car runs amazing now

oh ya, my TTR block off plate is now a $40 key chain

 

That's because your aftermarket valve is doing nothing. The stock one will always open before the other one. I installed a turbosmart BOV with my Treadstone Pipes and it was giving me problems. So, I put the stock BPV back in while I waited for a new charge pipe without a BOV flange, and the Turbosmart didn't open at all with the stock BPV in place.

OP, Unless you have a turbo swap and can no longer use the Stock BPV, get rid of the new BOV. You don't need it and it's only going to create problems.

 

the stock BPV will open yes, but the BOV still releases most of the air, i was told running it like that the BPV will be used at parking lots speeds and low boost but anything over that the HKS will take over, and i can hear my HKS pretty much all the time so i dont not believe what he told me

 

My bov is definately venting Seems to me like these cars are real finiky about certain things, bov's being one of them. Some people can run both with no problems. Others can't. Some people can run the block off plates...some can't. Kinda sucks.

 

i know its pointless to run one now but call me ricer i like the way it sounds so that is why im trying to figure the vac lines to run it but if i cant get my **** right i will put the **** right lol

 

looks like im a ricer too lol and same with Iboost i love my HKS

 

i got zzp knock off tial i love the way it sounds just hate that i lose boost

 

maybe thats ur prob lol shitty BOV, i run the HKS SSQV3

oh ya, also ziptie the ends of your vac lines

 

i have the same set up as Iboost and I love it 20+K on the hkssqv

 

07SSYELLOW how are your vac lines set up

 

ricers..

 

Bo' i can post a pic of my engine bay if you want, but u will have to look to see

here it is



that line coming from the manifold goes to the Lower CP i tapped off that to go to the BOV

i have had ZERO probs with it just so you know also

 

so on the t one end goes to the intake and the other goes to the lower charge pipe

 

bump still trying to fix problem
