Hallo. Next summer will i have a GT2560R, handmade exhaust manifold, handmade IC, and new handmade downpipe. I hope for 240-250hp, but don't no what to do with my oem blow off? Forge don't have one

Mikael

 

you will have to go aftermarket since the stock bypass valve is part of the compressor housing on the stock turbo...

With all that custom work it should be a small piece in the puzzle.

 

LOL, that's an understatement!

 

No, i don't think it is a small piece. What will the ECU say? i think it will give us a fault code. It is the biggest problem for now:impatient

Mikael

 

with an SSQBOV you can get a resirculation fitting... the ecu screaming about that is going to be the least of yer problems... LOL

 

Do you have a link to it? My tuner have full access to the ECU, so that should be ok. My only problem for now, is the oem blow off, it must be replacet with something that can handel 1,1bar of boost, and the GT Turbo don't have space or room for the oem valve.

Mikael

 

HKS makes bypass valves..



or you can get the resirc fitting for the HKS SSQ BOV




here's a link to HKS' area on that stuff

 

Thanks. But the oem valve is electric, so what about the wire, wher do i put that? Hope you understand me

Mikael

 

ah.. right.... well there is a few different ways I would go about dealing with that... but honestly till I do it I cannot tell you what will work for your liking... this is where I say... go for it! and let us know! LOL

that's what I have always done...

 

Yes, but kind of expensive if it not work, because of a valve. Thanks anyway...

Mikael

 

welcome to the world of modding.. especially if you think you are going to get high HP out of the MINI you need to know... it costs money... it's a commitment... LOL

 

Use any vacuum actuaded valve... And leave the stock one electronically connected it most likely won't know its not doing its job...

Depending how the ecu treats it you even may have the oportunity to use a resistor to fool the ecu into thinking its still there.

 

Ok then. You would make it with both, the oem valve and a better one? Then the oem valve will be hanging out and away from the turbo if i mount a bigger one, right? Do you think that will work if the oem valve don't get any boost, but just hanging there?

Mikael

 

exactly. Or maybe 'The Mad Scientist' can hack the ecu to eliminate the electronic control of the BOV. If this is the case, I'm pretty sure you won't NEED to recirculate the BOV becuase you can just tune the ECU for the pressure release.

 

I would like to now what Alta is going to do about it, if they mount bigger turbos??? I have send Alta a mail, but have not get any answer...

Mikael

 

Wont trigger any codes really. I had an HKS on my 1.8t gti, it was WAY more maf based, and I didn't throw a check engine light or anything. It'll be alright.

Btw with the 2560, how are you going to control fuel? And why not a 28rs? =)

 

Hi. my ECU tuner have full access to this, so it won't be a problem. But he don't no with the valve The car is not a mini, but a peugeot 207 GT(150hp) but it is the same engine as the cooper s. The GT2560R is big enough to flow 300hp, but i don't think that thr fuel system can give enough at this point. I hope for +240hp. The GTI 1,8 don't drive with and electronic valve, or? It will not be the same thing...
