Blow off valves

Postby magnazan » Tue Aug 21, 2007 6:21 pm

Full of questions today :) Anyway my dina GTT is an auto (I know, i know but AKL traffic...) just wondering if it's worth putting a BOV on it? Do they even work properly on autos? Some seem to say yes others no.

it would work but stick with the stock one, it wont make the sound but its proably one of the best ones you can get for it. Lots of info why on here.

be warned your probably going to have about 10 posts about using the search function :p

Yea, it's a plumb back setup, vents back before the turbo. Keeps it silent, and to be honest, unless you've done some serious mods, then the only thing you'll get a BOV that vents externaly for is the noise.

So you can spend $300 if you want in an attempt to attract some pus*y. Just don't expect any of them to be respectable!
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

The original idea was to get one cos i didnt realise it already had one. Certainly not going to spend $300 on one for the sake of it
