Need Opinion on Turkey Solution

[livelyjay]

I know this topic has been discussed time and time again, but I have not seen anyone (at least through my searching) go about the solution in the way I am thinking.

The turbo kit I had on my Lancer used a Greddy Type-S, with the single spring mod, and set pretty soft (6 threads showing). The BOV was set about 6" away from the TB, and used a 1" nipple and 19mm flange. It then was recirculated back into the intake using about a foot of 1 inch diameter tube into a 1inch nipple halfway between the MAF and the turbo. This yielded the nice whoosh sound the Greddy valve is known for.

I want to convert my hard pipes and Injen CAI to a system described above. I am thinking this will solve the turkey issues because it seems like the right combination of low psi BOV and larger sized recirc hoses and direct line recirc hoses (instead of the round about crap that's in there right now). I have a 25% off labor coupon for a local shop and I'm thinking I'll have them do this while they are building a custom exhaust for me. What does everything think of the idea?

You mean you not like the Turkey?

I kind of like it, and no doubt it has a laughter factor with everyone who's not familiar with it. I like the sound of the Greddy Type-S a lot more than I like the turkey.

I have looked through 505zoom's threads and read the information, but it seems like he was doing trials with combinations of the two items (BOV and BPV). I mean the way the system is set up on my car right now (Ion FMIC, Injen CAI), the air goes from a 1" nipple, into really small tubing, through the stock BPV, then does a 180 into the Injen nipple, which isn't any bigger than my pinkie. I just think the turkey can be resolved by opening up the recirc hose and taking out all the twists and turns. All you guys are saying talk to 505 ... but does anyone have their own opinion about what I suggested doing in the first post?

Fact is to kill the turkey completely I believe 2 are needed. Basically if you blow to atmosph. then the car will stall. If you recirculate you get turkey. You need both to help stop stalling with the atmosph valve on.

I just don't believe that it's not possible to get rid of the turkey. Lots of cars only use one BOV recirculating and they don't have turkey. It just needs to be set up properly.

No thanks, I like the Greddy Type-S, so that's what I'll be using and I can get them prety cheap used on various forums.

Ok cool. Good luck with that project. I'm not sure you can just do those without any help...not sure. Notice the Forge is dual piston.
