Ok, I have a RB25 setup in a 91 S13. I have two issues:1. When I turn the car on, let it warm up a bit and rev the engine hard enough to get the BOV to sound, when the RPM's lower the car shuts off.2. While driving, If i have to slow down quickly, push in the clutch and pull the car into neutral it will die???

What I have on it:RB25DETGarrett GT35R TurboGreddy BOV (Non-Recirculatory)Tial 38mm W/G3" Exhaust w/ CutoutXTD Stage 3 ClutchSpearco FMICKoyo RadFAL Dual FansGriffin Oil CoolerApexi Power FC + CommanderApexi AVC-R

Any help would be appreaciated, especially personal set-up's on either Power FC and or AVC-R

Yeah...I had the same problem with my RB20. I ran a blow-through MAF and no more issues. Or like Eh? said, recirculate your BOV.

u guys have two options.

u can run a blow through and basically its turbo inlet- hot side- intercooler- cold side-bov-then maf- then throttle body

this set up wont create a rich condition which u guys are getting bc the bov is before the maf therefor it isnt missing the metered air...

other option is the pull through which is the cone filter-maf-the recirculated line from bov- turbo inlet- then hotside- intercooler- then cold side- then bov- then throttle body...

the bottom option is what ur runnin darrel...
