It's cool. I wasn't trying to be mean, but it really does take a while for the direct airdump to have an affect on your car.

People can argue otherwise, but one of my friends ran a BOV on his car for years, and nothing bad happened.

Here you go fellas. This be what it looks like. I just got it done and so far I can tell a slightly quicker spool.
I will have to let you know if it helps keep things cooler on a hot day.

Ebay sells turboxs bov pipes that will work. They are 1.25" so it will take some modding to work with a 1" dv.

Looks good Bishop. [sm=smiley20.gif]
Just do me a favor and get rid of that zip tie. If you need to pin the return out of the way, do it out of sight. As for the temp, its not going to change anything but the heat the dv sees. Once it goes back to the intake, it will go right back to the same temp as the incoming air.

I am a project engineer for a large mechanical contractor, so I just had the guys fab me up a pipe. Took them about 8 minutes.
It's actually schedule 40 fire sprinkler pipe. It can handle 175psi

If you havent, you should either weld a lip on the edges or atleast run a thin bead of jb weld. If not, you can and will blow off that connection rather easy.

Don't tempt me Jeff, I'll do it. And don't worry cincy there isn't enough room where it is placed for the hoses to blow off. It would take probably 100psi to blow off.

Bishop...I give you A+ for creativity. Never thought I would see that done and even a recurculation setup...I give you props.


You know... we live rather close to one another. I live in the springs
