Help with BOV

[daren_p]

Well I just order a VP FMIC & was going to get it flanged for the greddy typr rs bov. After doing some reading it seems alot of people aren't happy with these as they seem to be very hard to get adjusted right and cause compressor surge? So if the greddy's are crap what should I get? I need one that I can re-circulate. I currently have the 1g but it starts to leak around 16 psi, I know I could crush it but I didn't think that was the best option. Please help me out asap, so I can get the flange style changed if need be.

Crushing it is fine if you want. I run a blitz and have had zero problems with it.

With the blitz you aren't able to recirculate, are you? C'mon guys can I get some more input. I know bov's is a common question but I've read till my eye's hurt . Is the typr rs a piece of crap or have they worked out the problems, as most of the post were older. Sould I just stick with the 1g & crush it or is there a better option that you can recirculate with. Everyone seems to like the HKS but I didn't think recirculation was an option with them?

I have had no drama with my rs,besides the fact that it sounds kinda like a duck getting chocked under high boost WTF .before I went 2 the blow thru setup i was still able to recirc,its just a mutha####a to stretch the hose over the outlet!

 

[OverboostXS]

You can physically recirculate any bov I have seen all but Tials recirculated. The greddy race is nice.

 

[ADrewzki]

I wouldn't necessarily say that all greddy bovs are crap. I have the type-s and I've been very happy with it after getting it dialed in. For every person who hates it, there are 5 more who are happy with it and haven't said anything.

I was told there is a recirculating adapter for the Greddy RS but it is not available yet. I'm trying out the Forge BOV, just ordered it. I've read some good things about it on some of the forums. Here are a couple of things I know about it. 1) It fits onto the stock 1G or 2G flange. 2)They offer either a BOV for venting or a diverter for recirculating. 3)You can adjust with interchangeable springs, easy to change. 4)It's really nice looking and the price is $170 on Slowboy racing.

I will let you know how mine works out, I'm installing this at the same time as a new FMIC so it may take me a while.

hks is really nice, pretty innovative design, holds buust rock solid, expensive though

I say "#### RECIRCULATING" and get a HKS SSQV bov. You won't regret it
You will have to sacrifice a "little" performance but in my opinion its worth it

by the way..your 1g bov leaks at 16psi??? damn.....that hella sucks for you.
My 1g bov holds fine all the way to 21 psi, maybe more but havn't gone that high yet.

This is why your name is noz . Don't vent......Brought to you by the DSM safety group keeping your DSM running since 1989.

A sound is not worth damage to your engine or performance

HKS SSQV has a recirc kit available for it, uses a push/pull design(holds boost great), and has interchangeable inserts to alter the sound if you decide to vent down the road.

The Forge is a VERY nice unit. You can check it out at www.forgemotorsport.com Just get the recirculate unit and it bolts to the stock bov flange, just get the one for your car be it a 1G or 2G. Then you have options as TurboXs has an adapter to run their BOV to the stock fllange but the Forge should do the JOB. Comes with 5 springs. The lightest worked best for me, the green spring. Maybe it's 4 springs, green, yellow, blue and red. Also comes with 2 shims for fine tuning the valve. They call the recirc. valve a diverter valve. You might have to scroll through a couple pages of "valves" to find the DSM valve. mark

Actually I've heard this from a couple people now. I think I might try one of these out, when I first checked them out I didn't think they were adjustable, thanks for the info. Think I'll just get the 1g flange, if I descide to try a Greddy I can always drial the flange (I think I wan't to stay away from Greddy as I haven't been happy with some of their products & service in the past).

I've already tried "venting" on my car, well not on purpose as I know the reasons why you shouldn't vent but the recirc hose poped off once & the car ran like complete azz, defently not worth a loud bov.

When I say my bov leaks at 16 psi, I don't mean all I can boost is 16 as I have hit over 20 no problem. I mean when I do a boost leak test I start to get a very small hiss @ 16 psi.

Like I said before, you won't regret buying a HKS SSQV bov. I'm not kidding, trust me.
my car ran like shit too when my recirc hose poped on me with the 1g bov. With an aftermarket it will take a day or two at most for your car to go back to normal. It did for me and my brothers car. when you first have it unrecirculated, it will run kindof crappy. It's bullshit that you need a Maft translator to run recirculated, its just not worth the $$. Money is better spent elsewhere. I will say this again....arggg....everyone I know in Fresno who owns an eclipse DO NOT have a problem running unrecirculated.

I won't ever bother posting about my experience with this ever again. DO a SEARCH!! i'm tired of repeating myself. GO AND TRY IT!!!

heres a free mod, misc tip : dont' block off the recirculating tube on the intake, just put a cloth over it and clamp it down. It will make your car run a little leaner. Do it at your own risk

Ever.

To the thread starter. Don't even think of trying this and sucking a cloth down the intake into the turbo.

This is one of the most ludicrious things I've ever heard.

Don't worry, I wasn't going to do either. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why both aren't a good idea . I have dsmlink for a reason

That noz is just crazy, I think to everyone who reads this you should give him negative rep.

I usually have a lot to say in venting threads but I'm truly lost for words except this is the worst venting related post I have ever read.

WOW!!

I am not ever sure if I should believe this or take it as a joke.

For those who believe this please PM me. I have a perfect beach front home in AZ I would like to sell for cheap.

I want to jump on the hey-I'm-not-a-moron! Bandwagon too!

I drive a 2GNT and even we know you don't vent a 4G63T without the translator. The common phrase over on the NT forums regarding 4G63T venting...

If he is venting, kill him in the face.

Absolutely retarded. I bet that zip-tied cloth thing only really works with one of those eBay performance chips.

LMFAO! "noz is on thin ice."

I didn't know there were multiple phrases when someone was a greybar rook! Now I'll have to check those out too!

 

[oldman]

nos, don't be afraid to retract your statement. Everyone of us has made idiotic posts and done stupid things to our cars at one time or another, the worst thing you can do in a situation like this is to stay silent. I see that you have over 300 posts so far, you don't want all that to go down the drain simply because you're too proud admit a mistake when it's made. Only you can stop the bleeding.

I personally would give you mad props if you post back, not to argue but to humbly accept and learn from what has been said.

 

[definitiveno]

I'm with oldman. Take your licks, please ask questions, stick around a while.
