RRE has their smaller vent recirculating into the adapter plate i think..


you can see it on this pic...



There is another tuning website that has a Type-S settings guide, but i cant find it at the moment. it tells you under which conditions they recommend plugging in that smaller port. someone copied it onto this forum somewhere too, do a search for greddy bov and you'll find it in one of the threads....

this seems relevant: "Second, if the single spring mod is not done, the valve should have the lower vacuum port connected to a source still pressurized after the throttle plate closes (IC pipes) and still have a very light adjustment to allow for the easiest valve actuation possible."

Ok well now i believe it isnt installed right.. it might be VTA.. cause it does almost stall out when i try to stop and i take it off gear... something needs to be connected thats not connected is that port that i showed in the pic soposed to be connected to something?

If you do the single spring mod and are recirc, you don't have to connect the smaller port. I am running the single spring mod and have my set up like yours and have no problems idling or no stalling issues at all.

ya your right.. ive come to the conclusion that its the fuel injectors.. they cant handle the 22 psi.. its too much stress. What it does is it cuts off the fuel almost kinda like the car shuts off and then starts back up again.. kinda like the brain shuts off then restarts instantly.. but thats the main thing.. i guess i need to upgrade the fuel injectors and such..

Does anyone with experiance know anything about this?

it your car tuned to run a BOV? if you're running stock ecu then it's looking for air that gets lost... makes the car run rich as **** betweens shifts.. not a very good idea. running 22psi without headstuds is also asking for trouble.

The stock injectors are more than big enough to handle over 24psi on pump gas... however, the stock ecu's programmed to enable fuel cut @ 24psi. You do not need bigger injectors.

sounds to me like you have a hose not connected if u loose an intercooler hose it will give the same conditions u describe try running the car and revving it up to make boost while you listen under the hood.... and do the single spring mod and re-sirculate it...

ok... but if this is the guy who recommended 22psi and a BOV without tuning then you might want to go anywhere else.
