wsup everyone?

 

Have you done research on the BOV yet? If you ask me, most people buy one and end up selling it just because it causes more harm than anything. . .but people always go through that BOV stage

 

honestly non, how does it do more harm? are some better than others?

 

The BOV's can actually cause problems in the engine if it's not tuned for. The problem is, with the blow by MAF system there is no way to tune for it. There is no real need for one until you are pushing more boost than the stock turbo can handle. They are also commonly known to cause idle issues too. The stock BPV releases the purged air back into the intake after the maf. The ECU automatically adds fuel because it knows it's getting extra air the MAF did not read when it blows off. If you blow off that air into the atmosphere, the ECU will still add that extra fuel. An extremely rich condition , even momentarily, is enough for a cracked ring land at full boost and full throttle. Don't risk ruining the engine for a mod that gives you zero benefit. Spend the money on something useful.

hope that helps..

in my opinion, i'd say don't do it. but that's your choice.

just make sure to do your research before putting something in your car... always better to be safe than sorry.

 

Holly hell!

Try scoobmods, fastwrx (machv), and nasioc forums. They usually have some good stuff on there. Good starting point.

If you take off the intake baffle, im not sure if it is still located in the fender for 08, it will make your intake noise louder and you will hear your stock BOV (aka blow off valve, bypass valve) more. If you change it to an after market
BOV, you can have it vent back into the motor or vent out (making a psshhhh noise). But like Mark said, it is not too good for the motor by causing a momentary rich condition between shifts (the harm is to the spark plugs for a split second).

Wussup por it Ave?

Good info there!

 

Hello odri, i seee you! no karting for your?

 

On a side note... i went to look at 2010 STi's and 09 wrx....
The STI is sick!!!! Has a phat intercooler on it too!
The WRX is a little bit dif. than previous models. It has a PLASTIC intake manifold!!! WTF subaru??

 

No, i ended up coming home from work and sleeping like the dead lol. I realllly needed to catch up on my sleep, and I'm still tired. To make it worse, i may be shifting to graveyard at my job to make more $$$
