Hey all got my BOV on (finally) i remember when i was talking about doing it some people requested pics when it was done, and i couldnt remeber who so i just started a new thread...

It might look a tad dodgey but keep in mind I have not lost one bit of boost pressure, thank god and this venture in total cost me $57 and that includes the cost of the BOV.

pics are here...

First of all I would like to clarify I did not make the BOV, i got the impression some people thought I did, I got the BOV for $40 on EBAY and it was a steal, but as for the other parts I used a small peice of clear hose from the hardware store and a larger price of hose as seen on the pics they were $1.50 all up, the various hose clamps that can be seen were $5.50 and the metal adaptor that sits in my modified intercooler hosing cost me $10 from a local exhaust place. Its made out of offcuts and then sprayed black.

The whole thing took me about 2 hours.

And in answer to your question danish, yes even though my car is auto it still works very well.

I noticed it on the cruise on saturday when we were going through the twisty bits, when i backk off the accelerator the back pressure is released and as soon as I accelerate again it spools up a lot faster, so i have seen it is abeing worthwhile. Very Happy

yeah couldnt find the vaccum hose on the weekend but will get some this week at some stage.

As for the smoke I cant really tell becuase i dont have a massive cannon of a muffler. Yet...

And yes as i have said before It sounds fucken sweet

Stock boost, but my GFB atomic boost controller came in the mail today so not stock for long, does anyone know what sort of boost my motor will handle stock, I think its a 3rd generation motor, it should be, dont the GZ soarers come out with them??

good luck if u think all gz20s came in gen 3 they came in all generations , u gtta find out which one urs is , if urs is a 88 model then maybe like mine its a gen 2 , running 9 psi - fit a boost gauge on and see , 7psi-gen1
9 psi - gen 2
11 psi gen 3

thats all stock boost readings , and its the easiset way to find out if u have boost gauge handy

otherwise have to looks foer injector and ecu connections , for their colour to determine

ttheres planty other ways ,

err...no i dont usually back off when going up a hill, becuase that would mean i would slow down, which doesnt help when climbing a hill, and no it doesnt splutter
