Heads up on blow off valves on the 135i

1ForAll · 03-23-2008, 11:37 PM

I would like to say that with 14.5 lbs of boost, the car runs great and hauls ass. I can't wait to talk to AA to see what kind of custom tune we can work.
Congrats Euno for being the first tuned 135i, the car is gorgeous and runs great. Get some pics up!:roundel:

ah, well, according to the previous post I though it was a MAF sensor, so I stand corrected

sndprssr,
is that your italian greyhound in that pic?

coco_m3 · 03-24-2008, 12:22 AM

how much boost does the 135i run stock?

eunosracr · 03-24-2008, 06:28 AM

7lbs i believe with the potential to overboost to 11.

Update on BOV situation. I just got back from Active and it seems like the current BOV kits will work. The extra pipe on the 135i seems to be some type of baffle. Not really necessary. I am going back tomorrow to install it and will know for sure then. Stay tuned.

Call me ridiculous but I really really want to mount a duck call on a BOV one time at the track... I swear I'll never use it again just that one day of the duck 135i the memories will hold me over. Friend with a 30lb Eagle Talon put a turkey call on his, driving past a cop hilarity ensued.

the SARD R2D2 is the craziest sounding BOV ever!!

I think you will like this: LMAO

Incidentally, that is what I think of when I hear someones BOV, to me, it's just not necessary and it screams, "Look at me, I need attention". Sometimes, it is harmless to make fun of people. I can see me doing this in my 135i a few night in the summer just to make light of the situation and put some smiles on peoples faces.
