tgpguy21 Posted November 14, 2002 Report Share Posted November 14, 2002 does anyone have any part #'s on a BOV, and possibly a price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse5302 Posted November 14, 2002 Report Share Posted November 14, 2002 New or used? If used, get one from a 90-91 Turbo DSM (Talon, Eclipse, Laser). Get the whole IC pipe/BOV. Shouldn't be more than $30. Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgpguy21 Posted November 14, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2002 i suppose the only place to get one of those is from a junk yard then huh? do you know of anyone who has used ones??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGPilot Posted November 14, 2002 Report Share Posted November 14, 2002 Look on Ebay also. That is where I got mine. Only get one that is a 1g as they call it. The newer 2g is not as strong and they leak. Do a search on ebay for BOV... 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted November 14, 2002 Report Share Posted November 14, 2002 After using a 1g eclipse bov for a while, I've decided I do not really like it all that well. It is not adjustable, and there seems to be enough difference between the pushrod V6 and overhead cam 4cyl to make bov adjustment a very desirable feature at higher than stock boost levels. So, anyone have opinions or preferences on aftermarket blow off valves?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iTurbo Posted November 15, 2002 Report Share Posted November 15, 2002 Here is what the 1g Talon BOV sounds like on my turbo dodge. http://server2.websytz.com/%7Edanz/jerm/jerm_media/BOV.mp3 Here is a page on how to modify the 1g Talon BOV for high boost applications. I've heard that the BOV is *really* loud after this modification. http://www.thedodgegarage.com/turbo_bov_mod.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgpguy21 Posted November 15, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2002 so can i buy that eclipse one from you then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1trucavalier Posted November 15, 2002 Report Share Posted November 15, 2002 what type of boost are you running? mine is the stock 9.5psi so RFL bov's are not necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgpguy21 Posted November 18, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 mine is running 14-15 lbs of boost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1trucavalier Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 damnn ! you must be chipped then. but if you have no bov and running that much boost you are going torch that turbo. hopefully you get one asap. what other mods you got.

TGPilot Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 what type of boost are you running? mine is the stock 9.5psi so RFL bov's are not necessary. 1trucavalier... most automatic tranny cars do not come with BOV's because there is not as much rapid high boost to zero boost to high boost situations like in a manual tranny car. When you run high boost and back-out of the throttle real fast (like when shifting a manual tranny) you will cause a shock wave to run back and forth between the Throttle plate and the turbo compressor wheel. This wave will cause the turbo to go from 100,000+ RPM to 10,000 real fast. Prolonged reduction in speed will kill a turbo real fast! On an auto car it is not as important to have a BOV because the gear shifts mesh together and you are constantly in the throttle during the up-shifts. Make sense?.. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1trucavalier Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 isn't that also depending on boost? 9.5lbs is one thing but when i take off my bcs and punch it to 3300 (no more) the amount of air being released from my bov in unreal. even with an auto that shockwave from my experience with my tgp has to be devistating to the turbo.

tgpguy21 Posted November 18, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 right now the only mods im running are K&n filter on turbo to allow it to spool quicker, and new plugs and wires. hey im bidding on a bov on ebay right now the 1g talon, eclipse bov will work wont it?

1trucavalier Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 how are you running 14-15psi without a chip? the only way is to #1 have the chip, #2 remove the bcs solenoid and have a manual boost controller. the 2nd IMO is very dangerous because you have all that increased air with the same fuel maps. I am running straight pipe no mufflers, and custom spectre intake and with the bcs removed and no back pressure the boost at 3300 takes off to the stratosphere thats when i let off and thats when i am just bs'ing around. With the bcs vaccume back on your car absolutely will not exceed the ecu's max limit. Let me know please if there is some other way to reach 14psi safely.

1trucavalier Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 go to your local junkyard with a 10mm socket and 1/4" ratched unbolt entire BOV, take off hoses, fits in pocket, whistle on the way out!! cost $0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgpguy21 Posted November 18, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 i also have no mufflers just pipe. i still have the stock solenoid. the thing is i have a lean gas code which means maybe a intake gasket leak? ever since i bought the car this is what it has been running and form what i know everything is stock on it. im have a prob somewhere i just need to find it.

tgpguy21 Posted November 18, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 no local junk yard around here has any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1trucavalier Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 if you gonna do the intake gasket, get the oil pump drive seal $2 and some accel injectors $175. kill three birds with one stone! look on http://www.car-part.com for a whole motor 2nd gen dsm (laser, talon, eclipse). If the motor is there 9 out 10 times the bov is still in the car mounted to the passenger side on the frame in front of the strut tower. If you don't have one in a week I'll see what i can do I know where there is one just sitting in the junkyard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse5302 Posted November 19, 2002 Report Share Posted November 19, 2002 Yeah, but you should get a 1st gen BOV. The 2nd gens are made of plastic and leak most of the time. Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
