Then you probably shouldn't do this since you have no idea what you're doing let alone what complications might come from it.

But if you still want to do it you need an hks flange on your charge pipe, install the bov onto it, attach the vacuum line to it and install the block off plate on the stock bov and hope it the bov doesn't affect your driveability.

you just want the sound right?

Best way is to get a k&n sri intake. Its loud as hell and then you can hear the bpv like a blow off.

he said what to do. take the vaccum line off the bpv and put it on the blow off valve. Then use the block off plate on the bpv.

k&n drop in filter or Short ram intake?
drop in = nothing
SRI = lots of noise and a little powa


bpv = by pass valve
The bpv is in the turbo housing on the intake side, the vacuum line comes off of that.

It actually does. My zzp maf relocation works wonders. Plus the maf reading the "cold" air is better then it reading the hot stuff. Even if you don't have a bov, id recommend it. More acurate reading just befoore motor imo.

Make sure the "Tuner" knows how to tune for the MAF being relocated to the Lower CP

I'm not doubting yours doesn't work great, because it may. Haha. I just have heard HORROR stories about it, and this is probably from 5 or so different members.

So, I don't know, haha.

I have the MAF relocate like Mike does, the difference between ours is his runs better and mine runs like ****

I need a retune for a better & smoother riding car, soon to come following my purcahse of a K&N SRI ofcourse

I have a 24psi tune from Trifecta

But with the MAF being relocated I think I'm gonna have to get protuned somewhere and not a mail tune

I think a tuner on a dyno can can tweak and make changes more easily then vince can over a comp. just MO.
