Hey guys heres yet another bov question now im sure someone already asked this but i don;t have the time to search thru hundred's of post's so anyway ...i have a
T-netics turbo on its way and wanted to know if it;s possible to change out my bov from recirculation to atmospheric and if so what are the slight problems that i may incounter like running rich or lean and how do i fix such situation
cause i have a hks ssq that is just sitting here and would love to put it on...if anyone has done this please post a pic or better a video that would be awesome...oh make sure its a t-netics kit too cause i;ve seen countless zpi vid's
thanks

Yes it CAN be done, so that answers that. As far as from recirculated to atmospheric, expect to create a brief rich condition each time it blows off.

You'll also need to plug the recuirculation fitting on the intake pipe because it's after the maf and leaving it open will cause the car to run lean because you'd be taking in air unaccounted for by the maf.

sputtering and rich spikes each time you let off the gas when in boost

Can always get a TurboSmart or Go Fast Bits Hybrid BOV. It's partial recirc and partial venting, so you get the sound and keep the driveability. Also, I heard that there's a way to tune the car so it doesn't stutter when shifting between gears and all.

Scionriderz

Alright thanks for all the info....it will certainly come in handy in case of anthing but any vids or pics on a t-netics kit with this done already

Scionriderz

imsono___un do you know how to tune the car like you mentioned

imsonofagun

Any decent shop should be able to tune your car to run right. I personally don't know how.

Scionriderz

hahaha....okay that;s cool just thought i'd ask

Well with the t-netics kit be ready for it to stall alot.


I kinda like that idea of a half/half kinda deal with turbosmart.

Scionriderz

Stall?? if this is the outcome can it be fixed by a shop

Scionriderz

Yamaha16bw you have a t-netics kit right how the sound from the raptor when you let go of the gas and when you shift

PlayinWithFire

stick with the recirculation or go with a dual vent system I dont think paying out your butt to have someone tune ur car to make a pretty sound isnt worth it. Deal with your turkey call or spend the cash to get a new BOV

Scionriderz

Wow a turbo Yaris sorry i have to say that;s the fist for me looks awesome what are the numbers on that baby

earpl

Scionriderz

That's awesome post up numbers when you have a chance to

Running atmospheric on a car equipped with a MAF sensor is nothing but rice.

Putting a turbo on an import 4 banger is nothing but rice. I'll take one order of rice to go please

mattvs

A properly installed turbocharger is not rice.

An willfully improperly installed turbocharger is.

Venting to atmosphere on a car that is not equipped to handle it will cause you to run extremely rich during shifts, give you an awkward idle, and can cause your car to stall.


BUT YOU GET THE PSH SOUND, SO HURTING TEH CAR IS WORTH IT!!!111
