well i changed mine because it seemed like it was fluttering alot and as far as i know it was the stock bov that has been on my car since 89 and now with 212,000 miles on it so i just wanted to be safe
but fluttering is a sign of compressor surge
haha it hoots (so it seems like its leaking? but only at lower psi? or can i just not hear it leaking when more boost is applied?)
i forgot to mention that im running stock to somewhat over stock boost, i haven't hit fuel cut yet and don't plan on it
mods: apexi intake and 3in exhaust...
ok so i bought a bosch 103 bov (not brand new but in very good shape and only used for about 3 months from the previous owner)
when i took my car for a spin (i couldn't really open it up full throttle because it was raing/wet out and kept loosing grip even with my 9.5 wide tires haha)
it...
another question
if it happen at idle would this cause the check engine light to come on for like 3 seconds and then go off when it idles fine
this is if it happens while not moving and just at idle
im really tempted to get one and if the price goes down more :aigo:
haha let us know when more come in i think this might be a better route then getting a pwr radiator
hey i know this isn't what this thread is about (off topic) but what speakers did you use? something to just replace the old ones (drop in)?
if so any pictures of the new speakers you used? and what kind were they?
i'll look into checking the codes tomorrow or something its kind of cold and dark out right now
but as far as i know that is the original tps since the car was purchased by my parents back in 89
so the wiring shouldn't be bad but the tps may need to be ajusted or i might need a new one or...
i haven't checked for any codes yet
but i haven't noticed any changed in the exhaust sound, my exhaust isn't loud either its the hks dragger but i'lll look into that
what kind of leak are you talking about?
this use to happen every once and a while and then it stopped happening im pretty sure when i started using shell gas
but now it happens every so often again
im just kind of wondering whats going on or how to diagnose the problem
it only happens when im driving and have my foot on the...
hmm i may be having the flutter peoblem but not to sure
examples: (stock boost gauge) (stock bov)
1: when i have to windows up i believe at a lower boost like if its about at the 0-6 psi and i shift it kind of sounds like a flutter
2: but if i have the windows open i can hear psshhh like a...
nice good job
i had a short that would kill my windows dash and climate control for some reason they are all on this little fuse what i believe is a 7.5 lol
it stopped happening when i replaced the fuse one time so i guess i lucked out well for now :aigo:
if it starts happening again...
i talk to a guy who had one at a local meet for any cars at a local restaurant
the guy said he was thinking about taking it on some sort off rally like across state or something
but he decided not to and then he was telling me the transmission went at 700 miles :aigo: lol
i was like...
