the greddy type s uses the same dump tube of your stock BOV.

yea i was told i shouldnt put this bov on until i have a standalone ECU.....like an AEM AMS...which i have the money to do so
Never heard of the AEM AMS.... what's that stand for? Air Modulator System specially made to vent bov's? :secret:

You do not need a stand alone to vent a bov. Just put it on and see how your car acts. Every car is different. My car hated venting a HKS ssqv bov which works great on someone elses car. My brothers 2g throws a CEL venting and my friends doesn't with the same bov you have.

Guess I am just one of those ricers that vents when I dont know how to correctly....

I run 3 BOVs venting into each other. It works great and sounds awesome.

Just put it on and see what happens. You will probably be fine with it venting. Even if the cell comes on from it, don't worry about it. It would probably take a little driving for it to go on anyways and wouldn't cause any problems. Mine would go on and off. I gave it to my friend with another 2g and his didn't go on at all. It shouldn't cause any problems and as long as it idles, you are fine.

I have the SSQV on my 2g right now. And it hates venting. I threw a CEL, and my car runs like dirt. I decided to get the recirculating kit for it. If I were you, Id just get one that recirculates, Im not sure if the RFL has a kit available to do that though.

I've been running the Blitz BOV - Vented to atmosphere on both my 1996 and my 1995 GSX - had it for going on 5 years. with "Zero" problems. using a SAFC for most of it. And now a DSMLINK.

But I will say my car was slow to get power between shifts until I went DSMLINK.

But that's because I'm using the NLTS feature so I just keep my foot on the gas the entire time during a race, and don't let off till the end of run.


I agree with Craig and Jet - due to your car going rich between shifts it'll take an extra second for it to correct the fuel once you get back into gear. Or at least that's what if feels like when I drove with the SAFC. (or when I don't use the NLTS)
