I mounted the cruise control 8n my 02 WRX to the back of my Cobb air box. Basically, between the air box and the strut tower below the boost control solenoid. No wires cut and the only holes drilled are in the side of the air box.

I have another test idea for you. The question being, does the plumbing of the coolant really impact the temperature of the AOS? Get yourself access to a Flir camera. With the coolant plumbed in, run the car up to temp and then check the temperature of the AOS housing. Noticing any temperature gradients from top to bottom. With the coolant NOT plumbed in, run the car up to temp and then check the temperature of the AOS housing. Noticing any temperature gradients from top to bottom. I would love to know if at operating temp, does the coolant really make a difference, or would the overall radiant heat in the engine bay be bringing the AOS housing to the same temp. I am guessing that there may be some differences in the rate that the AOS housing comes up to temp, but that would be a few minutes of temperature difference between with and without coolant. I am thinking that the overall engine bay temps determine the AOS housing temp more than the collant.

I recently had my wrx tuned and have been looking to add an aos. I really like the radium design but seeing as it removes the factory pcv I’m a slightly worried about it affecting the tune. Did you guys end up doing a retune on the 2.0 to adjust for it or decide it couldn’t affect things too heavily?

@FlatironsTuning

6 жыл бұрын

Thanks for your question Frank. I believe you are talking about the PCV valve specifically? The Radium does remove that, but the PCV valve itself is only open when the manifold is under vacuum, so removing it will not effect the tune. There will be less gas movement when the throttle is closed, and worst case, that could cause more deposits in the case and valve covers long term, but it should have a minimal effect on a track car. Hope that helps, and thanks for watching!

Hey Jon awesome video as always! Mate I might have missed the follow on from this, but did you find out how effective the IAG was at stopping oil going back into the intake and also did you find out what the composition of the "blow by" was that was being returned back into the oiling system? I know the report from the other video said that they wouldn't recommend this to be returned back into the oil system, curious if the stuff being returned by the IAG is in fact ok??

I have the Grimmspeed AOS purely for street driving. I understand the drawbacks but would I benefit from moving the breather tube closer to the Turbo? Standard procedure is to connect it further down the inlet towards the air filter. I've had some oil consuption issues with higher speed cruising back home (engine @4k rpm and over).. The PCV valve was sticking as well. Fixed that, now trying to optimise the rest of the system.

Thanks for your question. The short answer is no. If you are going to install the IAG AOS with the atmospheric dump, you would need to be tuned for it. I would not say that it is safe to use it with an OTS tune, but if you have to drive to your tuner, you would just need to stay out of boost as much as possible. Thanks for watching, and good luck with the install!

I need help. I'm currently running a IAG AOS on my 16 wrx. I've had it on my car for almost a year. Never had a problem until now. I've noticed my idle is high when it's warmed up at 1500 rpm's. I checked if I had and vacuum leaks any exhaust leaks and everything checked out good. I decided to check the check valve/ pcv line pinched it a little with some clamps. This helped the idle to go down to normal. Do you think a bad pcv line is what is causing the idle to be high? Let me know please.

So I have an iag comp on my car and I'm about to do flex fuel and probably just gonna be hitting around 340-350hp. Are there any drawbacks besides shorter oil change intervals to keeping my aos atmospheric? Is it ok to keep it? Or should I just convert it to recirculating?

Hi grade video, I have a question, if I only have the plumbing from the covers to the crankcase and seal all other and eliminate the PVC in the hose of the PVC put a hose to oil catch can whit a baffled then another hose to a venturi. It works?

@FlatironsTuning

4 жыл бұрын

Thanks for your question. You could certainly try it, but from what you describe, it sounds like you would be limiting the crankcase's ability to release pressure. My best advice would be to look at the stock routing, and make sure that even if you are significantly modifying it, that you retain the 2 1/2" ports that allow the crankcase to breath. Hope that helps and Stay Tuned!

I have retained the factory "balance" ports between the crank case and valve covers, but have the other two valve cover ports and crankcase ports just venting straight out to atmosphere with breather filters, the PCV valve has been removed and has been blocked off. Could this setup cause smoke out of the exhaust? Is there a issue with this setup? Could this alter my MAF scaling as I am getting high amounts of negative correction, is this to be expected? I plan to eventually route the lines to a catch can then have it vent to atmosphere.

@FlatironsTuning

6 жыл бұрын

Thanks for your question Booki. If you are simply venting to atmosphere, this should not cause any smoke through the exhaust. However, if you have routed the vents in such a way that prevents the crank case pressure from dissipating, or are using a restrictive filter media that does the same, this can cause pressure to build up in the case, and that in turn can prevent the turbo from draining, and that will cause smoke out of the exhaust. I would recommend putting a gauge on the oil cap as we have done, and see if you are getting up into positive crank case pressures. As far as the MAF scaling, yes this configuration would need to be tuned for. As we have discussed in previous videos, if you remove the connection between the inlet and the crank case, you must tune to account for the fact that you will not be pulling in a percentage of spent air from the crank case. I hope that helps, and thanks for watching!

The 3/4'' drain hose to the crankcase port on my setup (EJ25/TD05-20G/Silicone TIP/Process West TMIC) seems to have a slight uphill section no matter how I orient it. Did you run into this issue and, if so, were you able to resolve it?

So it better to have water in it rather than oil. 👍🏻

So, the question is. Is there enough vacuum in the inlet at closed throttle in order to create vacuum in the crankcase? if there is enough vacuum, there is no point of running the PCV and this radium system will be the safest way to go

Thanks for your question. There isn't a vacuum at the turbo inlet when the throttle is closed, but because you are off throttle, the need to scavenge the crankcase is much less.

Most of the time, this can be done quite easily with a small adjustment of the plumbing. Hope that helps and Stay Tuned!

@FlatironsTuning

Thanks for your question Brett. Going through a quart of oil is right on the higher side of what I would call normal. The first step, especially as your car is now 10+ years old, would be to go through the engine, and look for any signs of leaks, etc. And make that you aren't leaking out anything from the valve-covers, PCV system, etc. The next step would be to remove your intercooler and look for signs of oil in the intercooler and at the throttle-body to get a sense of how much liquid oil may be going through your PCV (there will almost certainly be some there, but how much). If everything is working properly, and there are no signs of leaks, etc., then you may want to consider an AOS or catch can. Suffice it to say that ease of install would not be a good criteria for picking a solution. If you aren't going through oil quickly, and you aren't tracking the car, etc., then a good catch can may be a good solution for you. But you would certainly have to keep an eye on it. If you want an AOS, the two that we have ran are the Radium and IAG, and those would be the ones that we would recommend looking at. I hope that helps, and thanks for watching!

thanks for your question. I would first recommend that you watch the video we did about the PCV system, so you have a solid understanding of what each group of hoses does before attaching an AOS. Here is a link to that: kzread.info/dash/bejne/n4Ntz9p9hae7dMY.html The short answer is that yes, you can install an AOS onto your car, and properly route it. This is because the lines that the 2.0 liter has are the ones that are the functional part of the PCV system, and those are the ones that need to be addressed. The extra lines are just for balancing the pressure of the crank-case, so you would not send them to the AOS even if you had the 2.5 liter engine. As far as keeping your strut bar, that is going to be quite difficult. Since they don't do much on a Subaru, I would say that the AOS would be much more important if you need one, but there is always a chance that you will be able to get everything to work together. Hope that helps, and thanks for watching!

I'm running speed density with the Crawford AOS with no PCV valve. If you are running speed density, you might as well run atmosphere.

Thanks for the info. I'm a complete beginner at this stuff so please forgive me if my question is dumb, but why doesn't Subaru install an AOS as a stock item and make it vent to atmosphere? Seems like that is the best solution (no oil intake and no spent exhaust intake). thanks.

I don't really want to take a hyper-focused look at a single manufacturer's solution, and test how well they have designed a part/solution. Rather, we are trying to go into more depth about how things work, and what to look for, etc., so that you have the information to make an informed decision. And honestly, the same criteria for the OEM PCV system would pertain to the GS AOS as well. If you start to see oil consumption, and you can trace the flow of the oil back to the AOS itself, that would indicate that that system is not solving your problem sufficiently any longer, and you would want to look for a better set-up. One of the tricky things about the function of the PCV system in general is that there are a ton of variables at play, and many conditions that come into how the system works. We are starting to get a sense of what is going on, but we are a long way from being able to say anything definitive.

Search youtube and you'll find a review in which they added a catch can in the GS AOS return line and caught a bunch of oil during a track run.

you do NOT need a tune if your venting to atmosphere. crank case pressure varies way to much between engine speed,temp, and just depending on the car like miles and how you drive it to be accounted for in the tune not to mention that air already isnt accounted for because its after the maf anyway

I have to say from our experience this is not correct. The change in fueling that you can see by removing the crank case gases can be enough to require a re-tune. At an absolute minimum, I would say you would want to work with a tuner to closely monitor any changes that the ECU is seeing, and tune accordingly. With something like this, you have to be very cautious because if even under curtain circumstances you are pushing the ECU beyond it's limit to correct for a change, you can cause damage to your engine.

Thanks for your question. For a stock car that is street driven, you shouldn't need an AOS. At most, a catch can should be able to catch any blow-by that you are generating. The best gauge of how much you need to work on your PCV system is how much oil you have to add between changes. If you don't need to add any, then you are having minimal movement through your PCV, so you don't really need to intervene that much. I hope that helps, and Stay Tuned!
