Ok, I'm gonna be taking off my top mount and putting my fmic on in a few weeks. What do I need to do that, I know I need the basic stuff like ic piping, couplers, fmic and mounting brackets(obviously), all that stuff I have. But do I need BOV or BPV, MBC or anything extra like that? I'm still running stock boost and plan on running stock boost for a little while after that.

Do you know if anyone has ever used a mr2 bpv in a FMIC setup? I have always wondered if that could be done. Doge has one, but he is still on the stock top mount last time i checked. i have the stock ic piping and bov from an mr2. alwasy thought about trying it out on my car. all you would have to do is cut the flange off the stock piping on a band saw or with a plasma cutter, and have it welded onto your ic piping. or just get a short 1in pipe welded onto your piping and use a rubber hose to connect it to the mr2 bov. thats how they did it with the 3rd gen 3sgte, using the same bov. on a side note.... i recently took apart my hks ssqv and compared it to the mr2 bov. they are basically the same design. the only difference is that the hks has 2 valves that can open (small and large) while the mr2 bov just has the one large one. other then that its pretty much the same concept and should be as responsive as the mr2. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

I have read that one of the primary advantages of running the mr2 bpv is the elimination of incorrect metering by the AFM (followed by the dumping of fuel and backfires) when the BOV opens. If this is true, how could the HKS BOV be the same as the MR2 bpv? -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |
