johnnymack Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Car: 2007 LGT Spec B Mods(related to tune): COBB AP V2 BNR TD05 20G (EWG) IAG Performance EWG Up Pipe Tial Vband 38mm EWG dumped into DP Perrin Catless 3" DP COBB Cat back exhaust Mad Dad EL Header Perrin TMIC Perrin Turbo Inlet AVO 245 LPH Fuel Pump DW 750cc inj. KStech 73mm CAI Prodrive 3 Port Boost Control Solenoid AEM Wideband 1. I still need a BOV. Recommendations? Clark recommended a Turbosmart BOV. Josh @ ImportImage no longer carries APS BOV's of GFB's. I can't find them anywhere. 2. Is there anything I'm missing? 3. Should I do TGV deletes for this setup? I'm 5 weeks away from the tune so I could swing it, just don't know if its necessary... 4. What about a catch can/AO seperator? Do I need one? Its getting a little crazy pulling this all together in time but its been fun! I want to make sure dyno day goes smoothly and there are no surprises. Thanks for any input/suggestions! I've learned a lot from this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacychick Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I had a Turbosmart Dual Port on my 05 with a stage 2 setup. Didn't have any issues with it, and it looked great. It was kinda pricey, and it is a bit taller than the GFB I had on my 09. The rubber hose coming out of the top pushed into the foam material under the hood. Not sure if the Perrin TMIC would cause clearance issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yamie700 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I recently installed a synapse BPV (kit for the 08+wrx) with the racerx FMIC and I've been happy with it. Not sure how the fit would be with TMIC though. I'm curious to see how the BNR td05-20g does. What kind of dyno will it be on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EquinnoxX Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 +1 for results. I have the 18G and a similar setup (minus the EWG). I am also awaiting a tune. FWIW, I have the GFB set to recirc. And in the reading I've done, it doesn't seem like deletes are really worth the work unless you're there already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Why do you need a BOV? What's the issue with the stock BPV? Sounds like a VERY nice setup you've got! In for results. My '05 LGT My '07 Supercharged Shelby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure on the type of dyno...I will be gettting tuned by Clark on 7/25. I will start a thread with pics, vids, graphs etc... Why do you need a BOV? What's the issue with the stock BPV? Sounds like a VERY nice setup you've got! In for results. From what I've read, the stock BOV can leak past 20psi. I will be peaking over 20psi. Trust me, if I don't have to spend any more $$$, I won't. Perhaps you'd get more advice if this were posted in the turbo powertrain or tuning sub forum. Also this place is much less active during the weekends. Agreed, I just noticed I posted this in a very GENERAL forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be set on full recirc and hybrid mode. I can't do the full atmospheric vent anymore. I'm too old. subscribed for results and I WANT A RIDE IN OP's CAR!!! Wish you were local. Anytime you're in STL. But you're in LA, no reason to come to this hole.
