when I bought my BOV I seen that there is a plug type of thing that came with it. it has a thread on it for screwing into something. just wondering if anyone has the same BOV and if they know what the plug is for and where it goes on the BOV?

Cheers, Beau.

u can unscrew the trumpet bit of the BOV and put the blanking cap in there instead to make it act as a full plumback bov.

that's if u r talking about the same bit as I think u r

I'm looking at one of these BOV's myself, mind if I ask a few Q's?

-How Much?

-Where from?

-Self Installed?

-Size (20mm or 25mm outlet? Is this referring to the size of the atmospheric port?)

-Any attention from the cops?

-Does it make a significant sound with stock boost?

Thanks,

-Where from? Autobarn, Ebay etc.

-Self Installed? yep, just take the cross over off, take stock one out, put this one in, 15 min job :wacko:

-Size (20mm or 25mm outlet? Is this referring to the size of the atmospheric port?) 25mm

-Any attention from the cops? not yet

-Does it make a significant sound with stock boost? yep, u can hear it, its just louder with more boost

Thanks,

Thanks man, also if I could add onto my Q list, I have an Auto and I understand that will just make the atmo sound a bit shorter compared to a manual which is coming off the throttle a lot harder between shifts, correct?

hi guys just though id let yous know if any one fits a t smart race port make sure you order the stronger spring (doesnt come with) as the turbos have alot of vacum hope this saves some one some time. after that they are a awesome valve for high hp.

any body running one of these? if so any comments?
