Blow off valve but no turbo
 
halfway of the video is where the fun stuff begins

Right off the bat
"its an essential piece of equipment on a turbocharged car"

Why the fuck did I just waste 9 minutes of my life? I vote for a ban.

Ahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahahaha.

I need to look into my $20 eBay BOV now. And I lol'd at reving the GTI without straps on the dyno, very safe.

What the deuce?

Those mother fuckers are funny. They have some good content and they have connections in Australian industry. Y'all trippin!

Sparetire 04-29-2010 09:07 AM

I made it to about 4:00, and it was some of the least dumbass stuff I have seen on the net regarding BOVs.

BOVs are essential on 'pretty-much' all turbos cars. How many people run like 5 psi anymore?
Stupid fluttering surge sounds are a bad thing.
Venting to atmo does shit for power.


Maybe I missed the lameness, but thats good to have for all the F&F types out there.

thirdgen 04-29-2010 09:31 AM

Lay the argument to rest and forget that it ever happened! That was pretty funny! I think those guys get it, cause you know there was some retards out there who really wanted a BOV on their non turbo cars, so those guys mount it to a bicycle to purposely show how gay a bov on a non turbo really is.

That video was fucking stupid

thagr81 us 04-29-2010 09:46 AM

I like the very end...

bojanglincraig 04-29-2010 09:54 AM

Wish I had YouTube at work. Stupid sonic wall

triple88a 04-29-2010 04:26 PM

I'm surprised they made it work and they made it sound fairly real. I was thinking they would just mount a big ass speaker on there lol.

NA6C-Guy 04-29-2010 04:46 PM

Dude, that fucking bike is awesome. I would love to take that to the track to ride around the pits, or bring to car meets to get laughs. Put "JDM" shit all over it.

Turbo_4 04-29-2010 04:48 PM

Cliff notes?

nicacus 04-29-2010 06:14 PM

I've talked to the Glen guy from GFB several times, he's a cool cat.
he knows his shit

Vashthestampede 04-29-2010 06:41 PM

Those 2 guys suck, and that video was entire waste of time. The more he talked, the more I wanted to punch him in the face. :vash:

Them civic guys will have some good competition if u do that.

what i would do in the video above is just hook up the bov do the intake manifold instead of having a different switch.

Stupid fluttering surge sounds are a bad thing.

BOVs eliminate the turkey gobble noise, and because theyre preventing the compressor from stalling they can give some (very small) improvements in response.

They are not necessary. I have never seen any evidence of damage from compressor surge (which is just scary name for compressor stall).

I have a very small bypass valve on my car which is just enough to prevent the turkey gobble sound. If it wasnt a daily driver I would take it off.

igropemotoko 06-20-2010 11:21 AM

I've always enjoyed these guys. Haha. I particularly like their weight reduction segment from a year or so ago.

SneakyB757 06-20-2010 03:17 PM

jeff_man 06-30-2010 01:17 PM

FAIL yes, but ya know though... there's so much cheasy BS crap being bought off the shelves from advance auto and the sort... this would be one of them and someone could make a crap load of money. But I ain't putting my name on it... this is just about as bad as the V8 sound module played through the speakers...

I'm hung over so I re4ally don't care if I just wasted 8 minutes of my life...

94blackmx5 07-09-2010 06:23 PM
