Title: diesel BOVs
Post by: Farmermike on June 22, 2010, 02:00:09 pm
i just had to share this. to anyone wanting a cheap BOV i recomend buying some boost pipeing off ebay. the pipes kept blowing off wich was a pain but today my mother had to borrow my gtd. i was quite impressed when she returned and had done this. shes used to driving a tired old peugeot estate. according to her she got a bit carried away racing a bmw. i was trying to imagine the face of the bloke driving the bmw when he got wasted by an old age pensioner in a soot billowing mk2 golf. ;D this happend shortly afterwards :)    (http://i683.photobucket.com/albums/vv192/ferg4130/IMG_3373.jpg)

i was quite impressed she managed to do that in one day when ive had the same setup for two years now and only managed to put a few bulges in those cheap pipes. obviously im not driving hard enough ;D

dont use rubber sewer couplers. they dont like boost or oil. mine split all the way around except for about a half inch where the 2 halves were still connected.

most of the pipes are connected using cut up bits of scrap intercooler pipeing wich works well. just ran short on a couple of places so had to use the rubish provided with my universal pipeing kit off ebay. they normally last a few months until they are all bloated out of shape, this time they didnt.

hmm. well, mine was meant for sewer pipe. and i think it was built better than that boot you posted up. ebay stuff really is el-cheapo.
