  • BOV Just Ranting! Extremely unhappy!

    So I found a 87 T3 Z31 at the Junkyard, and found that it had a DSM blow off valve, a boost controller and a "cheapy" boost gauge.
    I jumped on the oppurtunity on the BOV, so I bought the charge pipe, took a good hour or so to install it (stupid orange coupler kept going inside the charge pipe) and finally tightened down the clamps and all...
    Closed the hood, DOESNT CLOSE!!!!
    wtf!
    Bov is hitting it! :evil: (Its to high by at LEAST four inches)

    I remember the 87 had a huge hole in the middle of the hood, right where the BOV sat, ahhh!!!
    That hole was to clear the BOV, possibly for him to get more attention

    /End rant. :roll:

            2/87.
            Open Diff. T3. FS5R30A (AKA Indestructable). W-Series motor?
            Bad turbo (in my car right now)
            Smokes HORRIBLE and oil is going through the compressor and in to my NEW MOTOR.

            Just bought a modified T3 off ebay for $229 bux.
            Polished Compressor housing with .63 A/R turbine wheel and ported o2 housing (aka elbow).

            I just got my $700 tax return so im thinking of what to buy next

              A polished compressor housing is good for at least 20hp...

                yeah. i polished mine for extra horsepower as well. and if you paint it with ceramic clear coat it'll make it run so cool you won't need an intercooler

                  And I know why.
                  The heat dissipation characteristics of the aluminum housing, combined with the thermal reactions of the exhaust manifold and the heat transfer rate, results in low intake charge air temperatures and a whirl wind tunnel of unsurpassed strength giving the turbocharger a "tornado" affect resulting in more power to the rear wheels via transmitted with exhaust gas temperature, and pressure.

                  :P

                    there is no way what you said makes any sense.
                    It may not be a Z, but it's still got a turbo...
