BOV/DV question on Ruf intercooler

speednme1 · 10-19-2012, 09:51 AM

Hey folks,

I was fiddling with my car the other day and noticed that the factory bov/dv has been removed(probably by previous owner).

My question is can I just add the 964 turbo elbow with a bov(Synchronic DV001x) and connect the output of the bov to this location on the Ruf intercooler(connects to the throttle body)

thanks

by the way on that old school fuel injector, it's only purpose at the moment is as a plug.

I would think you could do it there, someone else better confirm though.

Hello, yes the 965 elbow will work but the source for the recirculating valve needs to connected before the throttle plate, I believe the Ruf I/C did not have a provision for this, Post more photos of your intercooler and the connection to the throttle body and we can suggest a solution , BTW it is not clear in your photos if that additional injector is mounted in a location that would satisfy the previously mentioned criteria,

Regards, lou

Ok here is a photo I found. My location is similiar to the location of the red cap on this pic( I apologize for using someone elses pic)

Yes that would be a correct location , Finding a thread on nipple of the ideal size may be difficult, Maybe welding a nipple to the I/C can provide a solution, Possibly a elbow so that the hose coming from the recirc. valve does not have to make a very tight bend,

Hope this helps ,, lou
