block off plate
Wednesday, March 18, 2009 10:00 PM
Wats up guys just wondering if anyone sells block off plates for the bypass valves on the saab td04 turbo? Or am I limited to making one myself? Its no biggie I could prolly have my machine shop make one up just wanted to see if any were made and how much they cost

When I had the saab setup I put a cap over the stock bov vacuum port and ran my turboxs rfl with no problems.

No reason you can't use the same ones offering for SRT-4's or WRX's being it's a TD04.

When I had the Saab kit I had honestly thought of using the Mopar BOV as it's cheap and has a great sound.

I used the mopar one but for some reason it wouldn't let out boost so I gave it back to my srt buddy and bought a type s instead, so I should be fine just leaving the stock one there it won't leak or snything?

Working on those saabs they are known to leak, just like any other diaphram recirc. valve. I would get rid of it.

That's wat I was thinking but will it hold? Isn't it too thin? I wouldn't want it to start leaking

Yea well if I can cut one out of sheet metal I may just do that, shouldn't be to expensive and shouldn't be to hard to do

if you do it with sheet metal make sure you put the bypass back over it, it will keep it sealed good.
