TrumpetRhapsody Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Sounds good man, congrats! What bov is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trwebb26 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Sounds like you've got some pretty wicked compressor surge... What BOV are you running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramerbuccs24 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Sounds like it could be no BOV with all of that surge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Its just because it sat for 5 months. after a few miles the BOV was working as norm with the whip crack.. heh.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffer949 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I was wondering also if you changed your bov because i know mine never sounds like that and we have the same one lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big-phil Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I dont think that compressor sure, I think thats a tight BOV. Sounds good Gabe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoNkEyT88 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Sounds like compressor surge to me, check your vacuum lines and stuff to be safe. Weird how it could clean itself up after a few miles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 as I said, just a couple of miles later of the BOV moving and doing its thing it was working as normal. No more surge, just a whaaatshhhh.. I plan on doing another valve adjustment soon and then starting to bring in some boost..thanks guys! It does feel good to be driving her again!!

RB26powered74zcar Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Sounds healthy Gabe. What bov are you guys using that's adjustable? My Tial is not adj. as far as I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Sounds healthy Gabe. What bov are you guys using that's adjustable? My Tial is not adj. as far as I know. Its a TIAL knock off but I put a Real Tial spring in it.. I think I have about 60 bucks total in it. I took it apart along side my friends Tial 50mm and they are really identical. I was kinda shocked heh.. It has a really nice sound and does the job well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted October 7, 2009 Author Share Posted October 7, 2009 I went out for a few minutes in the Z today.. bringing in some boost. I still have to find my usb-serial cable so I can start tuning.. you can see in this vid how nice the turbo spools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wigenOut-S30 Posted October 10, 2009 Author Share Posted October 10, 2009 Well, so far I gotta say this turbo is freaking awesome!.. I have full boost at around 3K and after shifting it is immediately back to full boost. I'm still running pretty rich but right now Im sitting at 20 psi.. Feels awesome and kinda scary! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
