This is what I have, this is what i should have got

[RED TREAD 97]

I bought my car with a HKS SSQV, venting to atmosphere. I got a Dejon intake without the recirc piping, and now when I open it up on the car, it sutters and turns off between shifts. I know it's due to the open venting, but I am wondering if anyone has ever hacked the Dejon intake to add a tube for recircuate? I have a couple of ideas on how to add to it, and a few friends who could do the work nicely, but if there is anyone with some better ideas I'm up for the help.

You said it was venting the whole time, but was it not stuttering before the Dejon intake?
I was just curious. I didn't realize there would be such a difference unless there was something else in effect.

Good luck on the fab job, though.

To clarify: when it doesn't turn off it stutters between shifts, and extreme situations (like running down the track) the car will turn off completely, only because i drop in to the next gear and pop the clutch does the car turn on again.
I'm really digging for ideas on how to fab the intake, one idea from many.

Cutting a hole,placing a piece of tube and welding it on there isnt going to do the trick this time eh?

what do you suggest? would a blow thru system help out??

 

[snowborder714]

A blow thru system would allow you to vent properly, yes. But my guess is it'd probably be more expensive to do.

And why won't menacing talon's idea work? Or would your rather not?

 

[RED TREAD 97]

ya'know, that's what i was wondering. If I get the circulation system as close as I can back to stock, shouldn't that solve it?

Re-circulating will greatly improve your drivability.

Get that fixed 1st and go from there.

 

[RED TREAD 97]

Now with one thing solved, the next question I have is; Should I keep the SSQV or go to something like a crushed 1st Gen BOV? I've done that on another GST before and it was really stable. Or will the re-circ solve the problem with the air, even with the SSQV?

 

[jongreene]

The SSQV should be more than fine if its working properly and recirculated in this application.

Why fix whats not broken

 

[snowborder714]

Just recirculate the SSQV. It is a proven bov for a lot of applications and they sell a recirculation kit for it. That's what I'd do as it'd be the cheapest and best solution.

SWEET!!! Thanks so much guys!! I'm just gonna add a tube, now to choose to powder coat the intake again, or just shoot it with a rattle can.

Last summer (before i knew anything about my car) i bought an injen intake and made the mistake of not getting the one that let me recirculate my bov.

I was wondering if i should just get it welded like this

or if i should drill a hole in it and just stick the hose in it. The welder i took it too said since it was aluminum it could possibly do harm to the intake. So i was just wondering what the better option would be.
Thanks

I've had aluminum welded and there were no issues. Clean welds, maybe you need to see someone else.

 

[Icarus]

Honestly, it shouldn't be a problem to add a the recirc tube to the intake. If the welder does not feel comfortable doing the work on aluminum, you should should probably take it somewhere else.

 

[Salg320]

So there shouldnt be a problem with welding the aluminum. Thats good ### I really didnt want to have to drill a hole in my intake. Guess Ill try someone else tom.

Hey whats guys i was looking round Ebay and saw a short ram intake for a non turbo .. and I was wondering if i can get that one and rig it to work... cause it cheap 20 bucks .. Think it can work?

 

[talonalex92]

No youll still be in the same bout with no recirc hole. Buy a ebay turbo intake. I run one, they work fine.

 

[91whiteGSX]
