jvento Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 I can not get my 50/50 piece on my gfb to go on. So I had to put my stock one back on I don't know what I did to it. That big screw goes in fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That big screw goes in fine. ??? ther are 2 identical screws that u take off that u use to fasten the bov to the IC. what else is there to it? edit: with the 50/50 piece, you have to angle it to get it to thread correctly. do not try to force the threads.

g2redgsr Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 this question was asked twice in tis thread with no answer and now im having the same issue...got a used BOV, no gasket...can i use it without a gasket? if not where can i get the gasket....put it on without the gasket and the cars def slower so i guess im losing boost? if i tighten the screw up top will the boost hold better? thanks for anyone that answers!

CRAZY KEN Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 ...No you need a gasket...worst case scenario use a liquid gasket, but I wouldn't recommend that! Here is you answer: http://www.globalperformanceparts.com/blowoff-valve-legacy-hybrid-p-24730.html They sell all the spare parts...I got a replacement screw cap, trumphet horn (for a different sound) and 2 extra gaskets from them!!!

g2redgsr Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 any gaskets i can possibly get locally like autozone perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaskajoel Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 The biggest PITA about the install is with the recirculation hose. There's a clamp on it that holds it to the recirculation adapter of the BOV (or the hard tube sticking out of the stocker) If you replace that black clamp with a screwable hose clamp it's much easier. Also, if you're having problems fitting the trumpet or the 100% recirulation block on, it goes in at an angle towards the base of the BOV (that took me a while to figure out...lots of screwing without going anywhere...)

g2redgsr Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 whats the cons of using liquid gasket? will i be able to peal it off without it being noticable to a dealer that i had a bov on there? i think you can just peal it off no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g2redgsr Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 ok well i used the liquid gasket maker...hope it comes off easily if i need it too...anyway it takes an hour to dry ill tell you how it comes out....also, anyone know why i lost power could it be because of the gasket? or is it because im not 100% recirculation? i put the stock BOV back on before i put the liquid gasket on and its DEFINATELY faster.

Merc6 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 liquid held up since last november. I just disconnect it at vacuum line and recirc when removing the tmic for the t line issues. Yes I also used the screw on hose clamps for recirc. its a process to get accustomed to. pull one hand tighten other hand. After a few vacuum line incidents I can take the whole perrin tmic off in like less than 2 mins as pictured few pages back. 2005 Satin White Pearl Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT Unlimited 5EAT (Project Car) 2019 Agate Black Ford Explorer XLT 4WD (DD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you blocked the plumback, i would bet you have a leak around the BOV, or the spring is set too loose. Check the gasket on your bov, and tighten the screw until it's only 1mm above the top of the valve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
