Blow off Valve

[miket11]

Is putting a Blow off valve on a 2008 2.5S altima coupe a good idea, when there is no turbo on?

whoa...

if no turbo. what would the blow-off valve be releasing pressure from?

[miket11]

lol.. yehh i guess it was a dumb question. but i just wanted to make sure from the forum. Ok thanks alot..

there's always that fake cheezy bov simulator like i have installed

i cant imagine how annoyin it would get having a fake one of those BOV's. its basically a whistle that attachs to your exhaust.... that would drive me mad having a constant whistle from the car,

You can hook it straight up to the carburetor bro! Also, make sure you tap off a line to the battery cooler

you gotta be careful though you dont want to damage your muffler bearings.

So basically i guess, putting it on with out a turbo is a very bad idea..

I didn't know it was a serious question, my bad.

A BOV cannot be used without a buildup of pressure. Traditionally they are placed on the intake valve. Without a turbo or s/c, you won't have a buildup over atmospheric pressure, to actuate a BOV

lol. it would be pretty sneaky if a blow off valve actually worked without a turbo.

[miket11]

lol, i wish i would work.. but i will not be the one to try it out.. ill lets someone else be the first one to try it.

[adidas2go]

LOL, I hope no one was ever gullible enough to put a BOV on a n/a engine

i heard this mazda protege pass me when i was walking to my car at school and im not sure what it was but it could have been a blow off valve. it kinda sounded like a pigeon chirping. any idea what it could have been?

Guys, you can also put a OJ Simpson rookie card in your spokes, and listen to it go rat tat tat tat...

You can also wear striped thigh high socks...

The question is WHY!

Im glad Miket11 had the guts to ask before he bought a whistle on ebay for $15.

From what i have heard of evansville indiana... ( i drove thru it many times on my way to IU) its a... "Our way or the highway" type of place... true?

[miket11]

lol pretty much.. Evansville, is small and too many stupid cops.. if thats what u mean.. I personally except all information that I think is useful, or true.

[LongBeachCoupe]

i was referring to the history of a certain group having ties there... if you dont know what im talking about.. i guess its better off that way!

[miket11]

lol. i guess I dont know.. I wasnt born in Evansville, only lived here for 9 years, well not talking about evansville, I wasnt born in USA. lol i guess that , I defiantly dont know wut u saying.
