Running 4 psi and softest bov setting still cant hear it that well over the engine/axhaust, now the intercooler is 9" tall, as you can see my front bumper support is still intact its just gutted from the inside, once i get the mevi on this coming friday ill tune and take more detailed videos of everything.

Video is 7mb so might take a while to load. Be patient

 

dam i was wondering when you wouldve gotten all that stuff on the car!! good job man you must be happy as fawk. dont forget to dyno tune

btw vid took 10seconds to download

 

damn, looks nice. how long did the whole project take you?

 

parts collecting took a while, then it was about 2 weeks to get the setup installed i would say about 6 months alltogether .

 

Looks really good, The BOV wont sound off when at idle, the turbo is not building boost.
Keep up the good work

 

Lol royal I was about to post the same thing. BOV will only release pressure when there is positive pressure to release. That can't happen at idle or in neutral (except maybe if you were to put your foot all the way on the floor which isn't the best in neutral). There has to be load on the engine.

 

why is it not best to gas it to hear the bov in neutral?

 

My friends dsm builds boost while in nuetral, wierd, but you can see the bov opening about 1/4 way when you just gas it in nuetral.

 

I think because of our long piping that we don't really build boost to blow off in neutral, I heard that from somewhere in here before... either way, you should take some vids when your car's moving.

 

need vids of driving. god i want to go boosted

 

car is so sexy man. I miss boost sooo much, please GET MOVING VIDEOS ASAP

+1 on the no boost. I never got loud sound out of my car when turbo'ed. But u could faintly hear the BOV and i have less piping being non intercooled at the time. But my supercharger i could always hear it even with a small tap on the throttle. Sounds like piping may really have something to do with it.

 

Sweet!! 10char

 

Lolz, I love that stick holding up the hood. Is that plywood or cedar? Nice can't wait what you do next.
