did u steal my pic? i posted that few months back


Yea i did i didnt have a camera to take a picture of my car. But i have a same problem. How did you fix your pipes ???
 
Move the U pipe around a lot. I screwed the braket in (after bedning it a bit) and let it dangle as I wiggled the other pipes to meet up with it. Mostly move the U pipe, as it is the only one you can change a lot.
 
turn the pipe on the turbo towards the front of the car. take the u pipe and bolt down the bracket. lift the L pipe up some and it should fit. make sure u test drive it first. mine wasn't tight enough and it blew off. good thing i had the bumper off still

Yea im gonna try to mess with it tommorrow it was dark when i was doing it.
But i think if i turn the turbo pipe forward it hits the radiator return line.

Thanks for help guys.
 
I just bought a longer radiator hose to bridge the gap. Also try to get the T-bolt style claps, they hold alot tighter.

yea thats what i did longer hos and the t_bolt clamps.

Now i have issues with car staling after deceleration ???
I tought there are no probblems with greddy rs???

tighten the threads on top of the greddy until there are 3threads sticking out


So that will make it realy hard ?
What is the difference between hard and soft anyways?

hard means it is less prone to open, soft means it will open very easily. my screw is halfway down.
 
Well i tried all the way out and in, in the middle still stalls at hard deceleration.
Im going to try recirculating see if its stops.

When i turned the screw all the way in (hard) it makes the turky sound and the air is comming back to the air filter? It is like not having a BOV at all, at low rpms. (because it doesnt open until you are reving realy high).

Any body else thinks that RS sounds like crap? Ill take pix and sound clip tommorrow.

You need to recirculate. The RS has more flow than the Type-S. Venting ANY BOV for that matter can cause stalling upon fast deceleration. You need to recirculate. I added a bypass valve into the system, which reciruclated air from the hot pipe to the intake. The Type-S BOV was on the cold pipe. With the screw halfway down on the type-s, I would recirculate about 1/2 the air and blow off the rest. This was enough recirculation to kill the turkey with the BOV, but have no stalling issues. If I recirculated my BOV with an adaptor, I would get MAJOR turkey but had no stalling issues. It would turkey more than stock just by letting off the throttle... even if I was only going 20mph. PM if you have more questions regarding valve setups, I have tried most of them.
 
Ok so my car was runing like s*** since i put the front mount on ( when shifting it was all jerky, stalling under fast deceleration and etc.) . But today i got the adapter for the greddy flange and i put the stock BPV and the car runs awesome so now i love the hiboost fmic.

Im will sell the greddy RS and im gonna buy the hks SSQ and im i will recirculate, see how that work out. Thanks for every body's help.
