Hello, one question, is that the translator of KZbin videos does not make it clear to me what measure of Allen's wrench it takes to unscrew the three screws that hold the recirculation valve, is a measure of 5mm can it be? Greetings!!

[@willennion5572]

Would putting the bracket on first cause turbo flutter?

[@DHORBURY12]

Is the 10oclock position the same on a astra gtc vxr ??

[@eugeneyoungman5397]

hi i would just like to know when fitting the unrated recirc valve, will this bring up any errors on the dash

[@stacymitchell6453]

Only time you'll want a shorter shaft. Good video though

[@seanryan5732]

really good video!

[@BeeFCakE-sl1wi]

Hey mate did that valve make any difference to the sound im looking for a blow off valve that i can fit where my oem 1 is on my B207r td04 turbo but want a atmersperic one just for the sound ovs lol

[@musicfreakDUBSTEP]

what if youve installed the recirc with the flat spot facing 5 o clock? do i need to redo it

[@Danifrcupra]

If you do not mind, you could make a video to see where a clock for turbo pressure is connected to the engine. I have a zafira a with swap a leh. greetings from Spain, sorry for my misspellings, esyoy using 1 translator

NICE A MORE DETAILED LONGER VIDEO GREAT ;-)

Do you know how to install a recirculating valve for a Mitsubishi Evolution 6?

[@sanavip]

Hi guys, i need your help, thing is, that i put on my z20let engine new garett turbo cartridge from z20leh, and after couple months i started to lose boost at 4000rpm, it just lets all the boost out and i can hear recirculating valve opening, mostly on 3rd gear pull. Many mechanics say that its turbo fault, but i think its recirculating valves or actuators fault, what do you think? there are no boost or vacuum leaks, i checked that first

[@Danifrcupra]

Thank you

[@karlfuller6806]

what does the recirc valve connect to ?? the hose i mean i seen it going up by where the air filter is ?

[@bluudysgarage]

Karl Rees it connects in where the other recirc connects into the vac pipes

[@karlfuller6806]

right can't wait to get rid of this turkey noise lmao thanks

[@jackd911]

Don't supose you got a video for the rear boost control valve bypass?

[@bluudysgarage]

no sorry, but really easy!

[@MrMattyg83]

can you do a video on how to bypass the rear boost control solenide please thanks :)

[@callsignshotgun8260]

mrmattyg83 you are best off joining the forum and posting this in the vid suggestion page www.absolutemodicts.com

[@welshman2011]

I just changed mine, only problem i got is when i started it i heard this squealing noise :s, any idea what that could be?

[@bluudysgarage]

Any issues, should be directed to our forum. Links in description.

[@welshman2011]

Its ok mate, all sorted now

[@lebigmac1616]

Did it make any difference with new valve?

[@bluudysgarage]

Couldnt say just yet, not gave it much testing, car is off the road till weather picks up.

[@oluskloc]

is this valve working good? Better than stock one?

[@bluudysgarage]

Not had the car for years. But was fine when on.

[@boujeePerformance]

anyone fitted a recirc blanking plate and had it run fine?

[@PerformanceY]

Is this part called bypass?

[@bluudysgarage]

no fella, this is a recirc valve. The Bypass is were you remove the plumbing for the rear vaccum box.

[@PerformanceY]

Thanks Bluudy. Is it ok to install it to a stock car or do i need to reprogram it or anything?

[@bluudysgarage]

nope, you need to reprogram nothing. its absolutely fine. This is ideal ready for a remap. Bluudy

[@GregWoodsLancs]

This looked like a piece of cake, so I started it on my Z16LET. Big mistake! No way is this a DIY job on my engine. I cur an allen key down to about 6mm, it may just be possible to remove the bolts, but there is no way the recirc valve can be removed. Requires removing the alloy turbo inlet pipe, which in turn needs a pump (water?) removing. I think it might be an engine out job!!!!

[@jedasakamoto6274]

imitando mightycarmods? haha

[@Noodle-2024]

tip let us no wat the different is

[@peternufc1981]

PP van dorst it's an update recirc valve it's better made than the standard as he said they fail and split so the one he fitted doesn't fail or split as he did mention in the video

[@angeloxlr8]

I fitted one of these. Lesson learned. It failed :( here I'd a video showing how kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3LFp4KYecZjrZI

[@julfair1896]

why not just buy a proper supercar instead of playing around with a Vauxhall...
