what do i need to do if i want to get a BOV?

i know i have to get the charge pipes and have the flange welded and get the BOV and slap it on. i need a block off plate to put where my BPV is now. what else so i have to do?

ive heard i had to relocate the MAF sensor? so i have to buy the lower pipe and some harness to relocate the sensor? i little help would be appreciated lol.

AND while your in here, anyone recommend a certain BOV? any plave i can buy the pipes and BOV and have it come with the flange welded?

please just load me up with info. i want to learn!

sorry for the noob question, but the info would be greatly appreciated!

no jus move it.. you could get one of those lower pipes that already have it(ZZP etc..) or jus cut it out an do it yourself(or locally) an then cover up the one on your intake

Can I ask why you want to do this? It's honestly a waste of money performance wise but I'm an advocate for doing what makes you happy.
