The car was from California when I bought it in 2002 and has been registered in Alberta since than. Majority of the mods (LSD, Intercooler, BOV, Intake...) were done a few years back and the clutch was replaced last year. Everything except for the transmission work was done by myself and most parts were purchased from a local shop (Auto Dream). Favorite mod by far is the LSD.

Hey, just wondering about your setup there.
I see you have the SSQV, but it looks like it's not recirculated?
It also looks like you are running the stock MAS, without the MAF-T set up, and venting the BOV to atmos.
How does the car run like that?
Does it stall at idle or ever die?
Smoke between shifts?
I also have a 2G DSM with the SSQV, but I have the recirculation kit and it runs just awesome.
Thanks.

it runs perfect without recirculating the BOV while running the stock MAS... it has never had issues with a bad idle
i think each car reacts differently though

You're right, that's why I asked.
Thanks a lot for the information.

the whole venting to atmosphere thing is pretty overblown When i first got my eclipse the only mod that came with it was a vented blitz DD car drove amazing never thought anything of it.
Then i upgraded the transmission which also included a 8lb flywheel now whenever i shifted from 5k rpm and didnt immediatly go into a gear before the rpms fall it would stall out.
So after I got annoyed with this issue i dished out the cash for new intercooler pipes and maf-t.
With the maf-t my stalling issues where gone as well as i was gettin about 100+ km more to a tank...
i think the real issue with venting your bov is if it leaks at idle is when you start gettin into the more serious issues...
ive also tried playing around with a few 1gs and found the stock bov hates being vented but most aftermarket ones you can get away with very lilttle problems.
But if you ask my opinion the Maf-t is 300$ well spent as its proven to increase your gas miliage over venting with the stock mas as well gives you a way to compensate for larger injectors as well as a few other nifty features...
