i have just bought this group-N BOV
(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/jdrp1984/S8000263.jpg)
can anyone point me in the direction of a fitting kit. the BOV has a re-circ pipe, but can this just be left to fresh air? if so, do i need to do anything to my current re-circ pipwork.
I\'m very sketchy on BOV\'s... So if someone has an illustrated guide anywhere, i\'d appreciate that too :)
thanks
Easier to explain by phone, post your number up and I call you quickly. Am at work so bored...
i\'m gonna go down to RGS motorsport tomorrow as i live within a mile of them and see what they say.. i\'m gonna need to buy the vacuum hose anyway :)
failing that, i\'ll be giving you my number tomorrow :D or if your bored at work, heres my email:

at current i still have my stock airbox, and havent yet purchased an induction kit.. i\'m guessing this complicates things!
Don\'t worry I ain\'t grooming you, I am not an internet pervert !!
Use the search button dude..

Swap out the old recirc valve for your new one. You can either do a straight swap to keep the recirculating function, or leave the exit side of the bov to vent to atmosphere, and blank off the return pipe to the airbox.
There are 2 stock valves. 1 for the 1st tub and 1 for the 2nd.
do i have to replace both?
No.
If you want to hear the noise "woosh", then most people replace the one for the first tub. This way you will hear the noise whenever coming off throttle at medium to low revs, so generally about town..

and if so, what diameter is the stock pipe without me removing it to find out..
i really appreciate your help. give me a straight 4 with a single turbo and i\'m fine! i\'ve owned the rotary now for a whole... 3 days
or even just a diameter adapter for the pipe if i close the return pipe?
The pipe is 19mm diameter. If your bov is the same then no probs.
If not you would need a T-piece of the correct size, but looking at the pic of yours I think it will bolt straight in.
its 25mm.. typical! :)
so am i right in thinking :::

Yes, and block off the air filter so it isn\'t sucking air through the hole you leave.
super :) Anywhere i can get a T-piece from? surely this is quite a standard application? 19mm>25mm?
not a clue matey sorry
pmsl funny thread like etch a sketch
how is the single tub ??
ammmmmmmmazzzzzingstill running in building boost slowly should be run in fully and mapped by end of mth
ooh betcha can\'t wait
single turbo, def the way to go and no mistake !!
cant get enought of it !! are you running a blow off valve?? im not a present and the wastegate chatter sends tingles down my spine every time i let off happy days
Yes Greddy Type RS.
I don\'t want to run the risk of compressor surge..
Your turbo must kick ass with the roller bearing. I love the noise it makes !
I am happy with mine though, I think we prob have the same power only you get boost alot earlier !!
roller bearing??? mines not bb? spoke to few people and there saying should be ok with no bov shafts quite thick i belive?

lol i know.. for now, i want to keep things very simple. i dont want to get out of my depth too quickly after only having had the car for 3 days.
Just got some HKS induction hardpipes ordered.. and i\'ll slap some universal filters on for now.
Very early days yet.. its a bit different to a V6 vectra :P
Oh yeah sorry you got the same as me, T04s.
I\'m thinking of the other guy, Lum90
Personally I wouldn\'t risk it mate. But I don\'t know all that much about it so if other peeps tell you it ok then fair enough. Me thinks bov\'s were designed for a reason though !!
yes mate lums goes very well cool sound when you switch off and can here the tub slowing down on bearings very coooooool
Enjoy it !
Let us know how it is when you give it WOT for the first time !!!!!!
