Metalic Filter - Recirc valve

Post by Rossco »

Hi Guys

Need to find a supplier for the small metallic filter on the 10mm vent shown in the center of the pic.

Any ideas would be welcome

Cheers

you seem them in various BOV's, boost control and other setups. Usually a small brass mesh.

Not really important. Not sure where you'd source one though

Thanks for the reply.

I cant really see what purpose it serves therefore in your opinion do you think I'd be ok just blanking it off?

BTW I showed a guy at work a video of you at the Pod and now he wants a Granada just like yours :shock:

Dont blank it off, just leave it open or stick a pipe on and route it out of the way.

The bottom side of the diaphragm needs to be able to breathe as it moves up/down. That's all it is for.


If he bids me enough I might be tempted !! lol ( not really :P )
