Bov questions
Saved up some cash and I wanna get some charge piping and also a BOV setup going on. Ive read some posts in the past about what to do but i dont feel like looking all around. Whats neccessary to pproperly install a BOV without flutter/surge. And also what is the best charge piping........thanks!
Click on my signature, I run a Treadstone TR8 setup. they are currently finishing up their new lower CP with a MAF relocate in it. It has everything you need to run a vent to air BOV. I would only do it if you are going to turbo swap sometime. If you are staying stock turbo the BPV should handle all you want to throw at it or you can go with a forge BPV.
if your not turbo swapping i agree the BOV is a huge ****** headache and i wouldnt recomend wasting your time, ive had it before i got rid of it just a few days ago, take it from me man dont do it. and its a tunin nightmare.
Terminator2 tuned mine just fine after the MAF was relocated to the lower CP. The MAF will read metered air loss due to the BOV venting to the atmosphere. This will throw you into limp mode and cut timing and will make you throw a maf code. P0101 if I remember correctly.
All you have to do is hook the BOV up to the line that went to your BPV.
Problem solved, no more P0101 and no need for a MAF relocate.
After I did the above, and put in a lighter BOV spring (for faster reaction time), some of you can adjust yours easier depending on the brand, not one code what so ever and the car runs great.
Ask me how I know, I just went through trying to get a BOV (Tial Q BOV) to work for the last 2 weeks without a MAF relocate.

I run the same BOV setup as HHRSSouth just with a Greddy RS and i did get tuned for the BOV and i havent had a CEL pop up in a little over 2 years now. But if you run it the way i have it then a block off plate is needed.
