DjGsTa Donating Members 944 Member For: 18y 4d Gender: Male Posted 15/06/08 02:33 PM Share Posted 15/06/08 02:33 PM Hey guys.Sorry to make another thread about this bov bs, but I just wanted to ask..I have completely removed the bov off the XR6T. and there is that little gold valve ( forgot what this is called ) letting air out. Is it ok to leave it unblocked or should it get blocked?If so what did you use to block it?This is what my car sounds like with no bov and a pipe I made for it. Thanks for the help.

Posted 17/06/08 10:35 AM Share Posted 17/06/08 10:35 AM If you don't block it off, you will be sucking in unfiltered air, it is a VACUME line after all.

RSK Member 340 Member For: 17y 7m 3d Gender: Male Posted 19/06/08 11:23 AM Share Posted 19/06/08 11:23 AM HM, so you get the DOSE sound from just removing the BOV and plugging the vac line?Or do you need a DOSE pipe? What's a dose pipe? All I've done is put a monza filter on my bov to get a cool pfftchhhhhhhhh sound.....But that's not half bad.
