Bov

[The Devils Own Chariot]

I did a search on this forum for my question and didn’t find any thing. I’m going to put a HKS BOV on my Syclone. How do they run with an atmospheric dump?

i think you are confusing yourself with a wastegate that dumps to the atmosphere. Some bov's can recirculate but you would have to actually buy the kit to do it.........not so common unless you have a tt 300zx or a few other cars that come like this from the factory.

Re: Bov

they run just fine, we dont use a MAF sensor anyways

No I don’t think I’m confused. I had a 4G63 eclipse that had a BOV and I disconnected the recirculation hose so it dumped in the atmosphere so it was louder. After I did that it would be very indecisive when it idled and would stumble a lot. I was just wondering if that would have the same effect on the old Sy.

Re: Bov

You needed to crush your BOV on your DSM. It would have fixed your idle issues, but you still would have run rich between shifts.
