KA-t bov setup and oil catch can

[my1993nissan240sx]

just need some help if someone can post pics how to properly hookup my bov for a garrett t28 s15 turbo and the oil catch can thanks! pics coming soon of what i have

The valve cover vent hose, where does it go? Please don't tell me to the intake pipe pre-turbo.

The BOV looks like it's already in place. You just need to source vacuum from the intake manifold. I always used the FPR vacuum line myself.

The catch can goes between the valve cover and whatever you have the line hooked to, like the intake manifold or pre-turbo.

IMHO the vc vent should go to pre turbo. When my vc vent was tied into my catch can it would hold vacuum in the motor when off and you could hear it squeal passed the front/rear main seals. :x

BOV ties into manifold so it can have vac and boost.

Right, but there has to be a catch can/oil separator if you're going to run it pre-turbo. Else you're just filling your intercooler pipes with soot. I don't see a catch can in his setup.

i have a oil catch can next to the passenger side strut tower behind the coolant

so if i have this right


1. the bov i could tie in to the FPR vacuum line as well as a boost gauge correct?


2. oil catch can goes

PCV valve>>>>>>>oil catch can (& the other line) oil catch can>>>>>>>valve cover >>>>>>>pre turbo intake

is this correct?

3. also the actuator on the turbo can i tie that into the FPR as well?

in my setup I dont need anything on the vc as the crank case gets manifold vac, after a few weeks with a can installed on the vc it had 0 in it, the line even now after 5k ish is clear and has no yellowing,the pcv side with can on the other hand is full of shiz

3 waste gate arm gets boost only ,use a nipple on the compressor housing or shortly after the compressor outlet

2 depends on you! a lot of debate here.. I have mine pcv box---catch can---check valve---manifold / vc---pre turbo/

1 no more than 2 items per vac source please:P I tie my gauge into brake booster I saw little change in gauge reading with it on either. fpr/bov booster/gauge


Tell us how its setup, looks like pcv---can---vc---T---pre turbo? Not THE BEST but works.

[my1993nissan240sx]

so this is where im at everything is going good and i need a yay or nay


1. bov ----- Fuel Pressure Regulator (yes or no)

2. boost gauge ------brake booster tied in with a T fitting (yes or no)

3. waste gate goes to a nipple i tap into the compresser housing (yes or no) (((can someone post a pic?)))

4. oil catch can goes like this (pcv)-----left side of O.C.C <> right side of O.C.C--valve cover--pre turbo? (yes or no)



** *OCC= oil catch can***

[my1993nissan240sx]

BTW someone told me i can take my hotpipe to the wastegate is this true?? for the actuator arm thing on my turbo

another thing is the FPR is only a inch or 2 long i cant find a way to tap into it maybe im going to the wrong side of it? please post pics of which side to go to THANKS!!!!!!


btw im going to be raffleing off all stock parts

seats
struts
springs
bolts
clutch
brakes
diff
drive line
exhaust
etc...

once my car runs free s*** will be given away

[jbracy7]

Dibbs on seats and diff

[my1993nissan240sx]

are these correct the bov into brake booster line

oil catch can is obvious also goes to VC and pre turbo intake

[240man91]

Never seen the bov ran off the break booster but it might work. An the vc should run stright to the catch can the pre turbo. So theres no need for the t spot.

[my1993nissan240sx]

well i guess i f*** up good...

if i run it from vc to pre turbo wont that shoot all kinds of gunk into my intercooler and eveyrthing else

[240man91]

Yeah. Run it to the catch can then to the pre turbo

[my1993nissan240sx]

can i hook up my BOV to the oooO under the intake mani for where the charcol canister goes i got rid of the black box and have 2 blank ports would 1 work for bov and the other for the actuator for the turbo?

[240man91]

Ok the actuator for the turbo needs to go on your hot pipe. You know the one that comes off the turbo an goes to the ic, put it like 6" frome turbo and as for the bov i tryed those lines when i did my frist motor an it didnt work. I used the small line commine of the back out side bottom of the intake. There is one inside the intake to but its real hard to get to and find.

[my1993nissan240sx]

someone said to connect the actuator to the compressor housing? but i can do that easier


THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

[my1993nissan240sx]

where at? i took off a line from the egr and plugged it with a bolt but i dont see the ones your talking about

[240man91]

Ok look where the break booster hooks up cause its right next to it. An yeah you can run your actuator right off your turbo to if you have that spot. Most turbos dont though. You dont want to put it any farther then like 12" fron the turbo cause it can make the actuator lag. This would cause boost spike an make it harder to adjust. I have tryed it.

[neverlift]

dont make me get out the ms paint man...

manifold====check valve===catch can===pcv hose

manifold====T===fpr/bov

manifold(before check valve)===T===brake booster/boost gauge

compressor housing nipple or hot pipe right after compressor outlet====waste gate.
gosh man a million threads on a half million sites with diagrams....

[my1993nissan240sx]

i dont need ms paint but i learn things by seeing them ( im a visual learner) can you post a pic for me

[my1993nissan240sx]

maybe i can use ms paint lol

[neverlift]

hehe sorry greg

[neverlift]

wow that got f*** up from my large drawing...photobucket hacked it way down :/

[my1993nissan240sx]

can you email the pic to [email protected]

[neverlift]

sent now take your email down before they get you

[240man91]

Now i have to ask idk but wouldnt you wat the catch can to go on the line comming off the vc seeing that the turbo is going to suck from the in witch pulling oil out of it an running it into the ic piping? I thought that was the point if the catch can was to catch the oil the turbo will pull out of the vc

[my1993nissan240sx]

ok so the waste gate is tied into the hot pipe

the boost gauge is T'd into the fuel pressure regulator with an inline filter

and the oil catch can i was thinking just to put a filter on the VC then run it like this


PCV------OIL CATCH CAN &&&&& other OIL CATCH CAN NIPPLE--------pre trubo would this work?


i should be starting my car soon
