I will also point out that in South Australia, BOV's are legal.
|
That's not what they told me when I put my car through. Factory BOVs are legal (recirculating types), but atmospheric venting BOV's are not. I discussed this with them as on a MAP sensored car it doesn't vent to atmosphere, so has no real effect on exhaust emissions but they could not be moved. Since my half-cut came with a non-factory BOV on the intercooler to intake piping (as well as the std BOV blocked off) we just took it off and put a plate over the hole. They made a special note of "plate covering where BOV was" on the paperwork but that was it.
It all depends on who is the inspector on duty at the time. The first time I went through the guy was very fussy and didn't talk to me at all, but the second time it was a senior inspector and he was great - just chatting about his son's car, and mentioning how neat and facory like my engine conversion was.
FWIW, I think it's worth the effort to get your car properly inspected/engineered. Then you can drive it around knowing it's all legal, above board and insurance friendly. The peace of mind from that is worth the hassle of inspections (although it didn't feel like it was at the time )
