Best spot for BOV with FMIC

DJIMPREZA · 07-02-2002, 12:53 AM

Hi guys!

Just about to custom weld my sard r2d2 bov to my fmic pipe, I know it must be as close the tb as possible, but I have been experiences some compresor surge troubles, using it on aps wrx aplications, maybe is the spring being to hard, but maybe there should be an ideal orientation on the flange I will weld and the exactly spot I´ll choose! or just play with springs (even the softer position is not enought to get rid the compresor surge)

Thanks

DJ

For the most part, I've seen them about 1-1.5 feet from the TB in the hose from the FMIC. I have heard of cases where two BOV's are used, one from the turbo to the FMIC, one from the FMIC to the TB... not entirely sure how they're set up to function, though.
