dude great job. keep more video coming...

 

Good job and good website...

 

nice! comical, and informative!! nice find buddy! and thanks for sharing!

 

LULLZ at the bov in the exhausst part lol

 

why you have a valve looking like thing on the hose to the top manifold?

 

As simple as, a previous owner had it on there. It doesnt restrict air flow, so i would hope it is a filter or something useful lol

 

oh ok i was gonna say lol

how typ of bov is that one ? hks regular?

 

hks ss bov. dont think they sell them anymore.

 

ic thanks next time make a video about boost leak/ vaccum leak

it will be super helpful

great videos btw keepem coming !

 

Ill keep making videos. If you guys can do me a favor and link to them if you are on other car forums. Im making some of my videos about generic concepts that apply to the rx-7.

I want to build up a small audience so i can make some quality videos.

 

the factory air bypass valve says "ABV" on it if you look closely. the factory charge relief says "CRV" on it.

 

I will have to try picturing an old man next time I am with my wife :o

 

If you listen very carefully while doing that, a miniature blow off valve sound can be heard. Or its just me that thinks of car analogies at my girlfriend's expense.
