Dumpy Valvy Thingys - need to challenge next door Supra

I would like some dumpy valvy thingys on me car that go whoooossshhhh. Now, I have got an Apexi induction kitty and need advice on what to get and how much to spend. Would I be asking too much for someone to help me fit them as the last time I did any engine work I destroyed a BMW's engine thus need help here. I am in Enfield, Middlesex. I have read the DIY guide to fitting BOVs but its too much for me.

 

I want a big loud noise that will p*ss the entire street off as the Supra next door has one and every time I'm out there and tinkering he has to make an issue of how good his car is and the brilliant dump valve he has fitted last week. Thus I am calling on all forum members to unite and save my reputation and that of the Zeds as now its time for me to progress from a boy to a man and so need help ! Let us make this place a Zed planet and eliminate the uprising of the Supras.

 

We need a revolution. If I can change (ex Supra TT owner) then everyone can change.

Yes but make sure you order the Z fitting kit and a pair of BOV's

The full kit from Z1 Motorsports is a bargain ;)

i just want to slap yu all round the heads for being so dumb. dump valves are a wast of money. get uprared recircs FFS and then tell ya Poopra neigbor he knows fook all about cars.

Do not agree on any points you say. In my opinion if we all took your attitude then this forum would be called very-boring.300zx.co.uk

 

Also would be grateful if you kept opinions like "dumb" to yourself as I am sure speaking on behalf of others here also, it comes across very offensive. Its a pity in my opinion you lack the benefit of your intellect, but according to your comment, 80% of members here are "dumb" for fitting BOV ???

 

If you can't put your comment constructively and in a manerred form, then DON'T F*CKING SAY ANYTHING DUDE.

 

Get a life and learn people skills. Besides, try "slapping" yourself to get some common sense. Why do we have idiots here who spoil the atmosphere for everyone ???

 

SENSE & LACK OFF SENSIBILITY

Not dumb,

You're correct that dump valves aren't as good as recircs performance wise but....

I want to scare old ladies :D

come on Sy a Robotics engineer and you cant fit dump valves!?? ............did mine when i was home last time , got it from B&Q .....its a green ball thing that fits in the systern above the bog ..hope that helps ........ :) :) :) :)

LMFAO ! Robots don't go whoooosssshhh. Besides, the only dump valve I know is the pyloric sphincter that contracts and expands.

 

I tried to follow the write up but half the things I can't visually see on the Zed thus great theory but no practice for me. Bad isn't it.

 

You see, cars and I have a very touchy relationship. I let my wife do the mechanics shes more good at it than I am. Took me 3 hours to put turbo hard pipes on the other day, had to hack saw off the old ones. So you see, I am a disaster master for motors.

 

By the way, where are you based in Russia ? I did a 9 month contract in Moscow not to long ago. Cold as hell mate. My underwear constantly froze solid and yes I was wearing them at the time !

actually im based in Kazakhstan ....but no feker knew where that was until Ali G did Borat .....it has just started to melt the snow now so its warming up but i know exactly what you mean about the cold ...coldest ive experineced was minus 48c (minus 75c with the wind chill )

 

good luck with the dump valves ......and yes go with the turbo xs with trumpets ......loud as fook and will drop an OAP at twenty paces

when you talk to your neighbour next ask him how the poopra's running as thats what there known as

Had turbo XS on my Z, best sounding BOV's on the plannet, especially with 16psi running through each :)

 

True BOV's are for nothing but noise and show, but they do sound cool at times. I've no doubt the factory recircs are much more efficient than a vent to atmosphere one.

 

Cheers!
