99% of cars out there only use a single BOV to begin with. The 350z twin scroll kit uses one, as does the mid mount kit that I make for the 350z.

The Tial BOV's are also the largest you can get at 50mm with large vent ports..so there is a lot of room/area for the charge air to escape while the TB closes during shifts.

I would add that the single BOV pre-IC is a more efficient design too. There is no point in cooling charge air that is not going to be inducted. By venting before the IC, you save the IC the thermal load (i.e. heat soak) of that air.

Do you have a version of the oil filter relocation kit that works with 2012 models that have the oil/water heat exchanger located at the filter?

Yes, this is true as well.

The OEM oil cooler will have to be removed, and everything else should work just fine.

What do you do about the water lines? Just join them together and close the loop? Also, is your kit thermostatically controlled?

just spent the better half of my night reading through this thread - VERY IMPRESSIVE!!

I have a G37 6MT Coupe and I hope it FITs because I am so getting this kit once i save up a bit. It's going to be winter here soon. this will be a nice winter/spring project.! I hope you are still making them when the time comes!

ps. recommendation on clutch? I read JMac88 running Specialty Z 6-puck. Is that on stock flywheel?

I just installed a South Bend Stage 3 with DXD flywheel and heavy duty CSC. Im told it will handle this power with ease. I'll find out for sure next spring.

Yes, water lines can be coupled, and it will just cycle through. There is no thermostatic plate. I could not find a low profile oil filter take off plat with a thermostat.

EDIT:

It appears that an inline thermostat can be added to the system. It would be about $130, including the extra short hose that would be needed to go form the new oil filter location to the thermostat.

I hope to test fit this on a G37 in the spring. I am very very positive that it will be a direct bolt on just like with the Z.

I would think, particularly for people up your way, you would definitely want a thermostat. Want to get the oil up to temp as fast as possible. Do you have info on the in-line part you found?

These cars are not being driven up here during winter, and I will look at the whole thermostat idea in a couple of days when I do another install. Sorry I do not have a part number for the unit I had found.

It was rated to flow 20 gal/min, and open at 180deg F.

I won't need any of that CRAP down here! Hehe

Boosted Performance · 11-01-2012, 09:41 AM

Well, there is another Z on the lift in the garage now. It arrived last night, and with a bit of effort we were able to get it up the icy driveway and on the lift.

The install starts tonight, although I have drained the oil and removed the oil filter last night already. I will be taking a thousand pictures again with this install during every step, so I can perfect the installation manual. I will also keep track of the time it takes to do this from scratch.
