LOL Good call..

I love a good debate.

I understand all the principals of the specific systems described in those links and have used these to design secondary refrigeration systems in larger cool stores. using a mix of glycol and brine as the secondary refrigerant.

(aiming to keep the ammonia side of the particular system as small as possible refrigerant charge wise due to council restrictions and OSH protocols).

Still none of these specifically relate to my comment regarding the pressurization and subsequent disruption of airflow in the air intake before the turbo when a plumb back blow off valve is employed.

Surely this disruption to the laminar airflow stream would typically negate the cooling benefits of any chilling effect of air charge being returned to the induction side of the turbo..

Forum debates ftw!

This is true, non-laminar airflow being introduced to the compressor blades will cause inefficient compression through the turbo, however being an off-boost situation it may not be of any significance.. whether or not it offsets the denser airflow I couldn't say. My original rant was to dispel the rumour in a prior post that a BOV recirculates hot air back through the system, which isn't the case. IMO plumb back has more advantages over venting if you overlook the woo-ing effects the audiable portion of the vent has on the female species.

Ha Ha... Yeah some dudes prefer pussy to performance.....

Mine vents to atmo loud as so i in theory should be getting a lot more action than i do!!!

Maybe i need to get a bigger valve.. LOL

[GTBLTD]

haha everyone wants a bigger valve ;D ;D

just buy a zerosports intake pipe,the standard bov will make plenty of noise.

What makes you say that? I talked to the zerosports distributor and he said adding the intake pipe alone will do nothing but dress up the engine bay, have you had a different outcome?

With a pod filter you can hear the standard factory bov venting.

The zsports intake has been proven to increase intake,not just dress it up

ive got a zerosports intake myself and it does make 1 hell of a difference. factory BOV does definitely get louder thats for sure and it does dresss up the engine bay quite nicely

also have a zerosprots intake and apexi pod,stock bov is rather loud

[bad_gt]

far out i was gonna get a full venting bov blitz supersound or greddy type rs reading all this makes me think twice

bout getting one love the sound they make getting sick of hks ssq ones though. Any idea where to get a zerosports intake?

anyone keen on selling one:D

[Guest]

Wowsers my head hurts now and I glossed over much of it!

Makes me wonder whether I should swap back from my GTB Hybrid (50/50), especially as I've got some interesting noises from the intake now that the snorkel chamber thingy is gone.

plumback FTW

altho i do have turbosmart external vent atm

on hard so hardly ever goes off really, but i dont boost that often anymore, fuck i need to buy a daily driver, driving central to south and back everyday is $$$$
