firepool Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Hi Got this blow off valve with the supra but aint had chance to play about with it yet. Does anyone know what make of BOV it is? And whether or not it will bolt directly to my engine? And will it be worth it? I think a stock one is on there at the moment. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Your car is a UK... You don't want to put an atmospheric BOV on the car, due to the fact that it runs a MAF sensor... which means it won't realize it dumps the air and will over fuel.

firepool Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 Does that mean the stock BOV isn't atmospheric but it'd be ok to fit on a J spec? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats not always strictly true dude, it does seem to sometimes depend on car to car. Im MAF, and mine is fine........she doesnt ever stall either.....

kylestt Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 That does appear from the pictures to be a fake/knock off HKS SSQV. Does it have any HKS stamps on it? And we in the USA also have MAF sensors and we vent to the atmosphere on the Supra without any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think i'll put it on then as she's running like a dream and i don't wanna upset anything and she sounds superb That does appear from the pictures to be a fake/knock off HKS SSQV.

There are no stamps on it at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Are they easy enough to fit? I might put it on, see how it sounds Unless you have the correct flange (which isn't on the pictures) then no, you can't fit it. You either need the standard flange which allows you to place it in the same place as the stock one, or a alu flange which allows you to weld it to an aftermarket IC pipe. Does that mean the stock BOV isn't atmospheric but it'd be ok to fit on a J spec? The stock BOV is not atmospheric. As Gav mentions, it's not recommended to fit one to a car with a MAF sensor. The auto's have been reported to have stalling issues with these BOV's, though it doesn't seem to affect everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
