BPV Posted by vvack0matic [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: HELP!! re O-ring etc. Re: Turbo By Pass Brands, SWEDECAR ![]() ![]() |
I think he might be talking about the metal hook that has one bolt holding down the pipe, might of snapped ot something.
about the bpv there is a mechanical one that allows the driver to place different springs in the valve from weak to very strong, i installed this valve and still am using it with the very strong spring, as boosting goes I'm still smiling with it. how-ever the mechanical bpv dose have a draw back, i found after putting 3 to 5 hundred miles on the car the oil drys out on the valves rings leaving it to stick or leak its a matter of just unscrewing the top of it pulling out the shaft and putting a thin line of Vaseline around the o rings then its good as new. )why use it you might ask being it has a slight problem) because when the valve is equipped using the strong spring it doesn't leak allowing the valve to hold upwards of 20 psi before leaking, the stock boch bpv can only hold max 15psi before they leak venting boost back into the air intake. the pic below is what the mechanical bpv looks like, and even though my 9-5 supposedly has tcs control i would never know it becouse the car boosts so hard im leaving tread on the pavement and all the tcs is doing is flashing the stupid dash icon. i guess its trying to tell me the tires are spinning.
I got the valve off e bay ill post a link to it but if it dosent work search
