How did you hook up the recirc? When I was using my dsm bov, I just cut a hole in the turbocharger boot & glued in a brass fitting to connect the tube.

I unhooked the valve cover vent hose and got a PVC connection to go from the 1/2 inch to 1 inch hose and then to the BOV.

now my valve cover vent hose just hangs there. it has vaccum all the time but doesn't seem to affect the engine.

I was thinking of posting this question but since we're on the topic, how is there a vaccum? ...where is it sucking to, and does it change to pressure when I'm under boost?

I'll get a little K&N filter looking guy for it and just stick it right on the valve cover.

spped lmiter is set at 112mph. I had him throught he whole thing. then he caugh tme once I hit speed lmitier (took hima few seconds it didnt; happen right away) not to mentions I had 2 ottehr ppl in the car and he was alone. and I got speedlimiter cause I got stock ECU. Im getting stand alone so i dunw ant an ECU upgrade.

Bleach: No pressure in there dosent increase with boost. it is a vent for the crankcase if you pressureize it it would be really really bad.
