Today Carl at Speed Source made me a new intake so I could recirculate my Greddy BOV. Here are the results:
1. No more backfires  2. No more puffs of black smoke out my tail pipe 3. No more ricey BOV sound 4. Better response after shifting All in all, a great mod - unless you like the sound (which I don't). Here are the pics:

I took some pics last night but haven't downloaded them from my camera. I will try to post them in the next day or two. I will not be setting up a group buy on intakes since I already have one. Also, this is a piece that might be better off made as a one-off since configurations could differ (battery relocation, other components, etc.). -------------------- 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. |

Is this different than the recirculation that already occurs in the 3rd gen 3SGTE?

My understanding is that 3rd gens do not have bpvs. They are speed density systems. The 2nd gen has a bpv stock in the MR2. Alltracs dont use one. -------------------- 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. |

oops. I made a mistake. The difference in the speed density system is that BPV doesnt need to be recirculated to avoid the problems with an open BOV in a second gen. My apologies for the confusion.
