Hi all,

Finally got a GT yesterday. Trying to find out where to
Mount a BOV has anyone done this and can maybe show me
Some pics.

Thanks
Ash :-)

I don't mean to be rude but do you know what a bov is? You will find your car is fitted with one from the factory. A replacement bov will go in its place.

Yeah I know what a BOV is. I want to vent to atmosphere
I can't see where the factory one is that's what I'm
Trying to find out and any suggestions as to what brand
And model I will need. Thanks though.

Atmo BOV?

You should of bought a Skyline. :roll:

You car will run worse with an atmo BOV.....

So you guys don't recommend putting one on?

It's my first turbo though hahahaha.

Total waste of money that can be better spent elsewhere. :wink:

Cool. I'll scrap that idea then.

If you want to hear your BOV more a pod filter or better panel filter will give you a bit more sound.

Well I'm booked in to get a tune and exhaust at chiptorque
In January when I head up for a holiday. I just want to know where abouts
On my engine the factory one is though but no one can seem
To tell me.

On a gen 4 it's actually attached to the TMIC (under engine cover), not sure about the gen 5. You'll know it when you see it.

I have pulled the engine cover off and my brother
Has even had a look and he couldn't find it. It's a mystery lol

BOV is down in front of turbo, not needing an upgrade on it either, they hold boost well.

With a turbo back exhaust, they make a little over 200kw@wheels

I am in Coffs Harbour if you would prefer one of my tunes, fair bit cheaper and closer as well!

+ 1 for a kido tune. Very recommended.
