Shelby Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 turn it over and see if the boost port has been plug'd and a vent hole drill'd in the passage to the upper diaphram,, if that port is not plug'd it'l blow open at aprox 8 lbs http://26liter.us/gallery/albums/userpics/10009/1g_bov.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickireson Posted March 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Gocha. So when i plug and drill what does that change it to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 you stop boost from opening the valve , oem it'l open arround 8 lbs,, then you drill a small hole in the side passage way , odds are it's already drill'd this is so the lower diaphram don't create a vacuum and slow opening under decell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swifty Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 hello there, i got a 1g bov and pipe for like $10 at the bone yard, i was reading how to mod it but it didnt make sense to me, blocking the port and drilling a new hole and putting it to boost/vacuum source?, why cant you drill a channel from where the bov , valve is over to the port, same difference, right, well thats what i did and it works,but seems not to open unless you rev it high, or driving it in the boost, why. i have had many other turbo cars and the opened as soon as you got ant throttle. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
