BOV Vacuum line disconnect? Can i relocate it?
So I installed the Dejon Powerhouse spring upgrade, and when i put it all back together i forgot to put the Vacuum hose back on. Took it for a spin and it sounded amazing. CEL came on and i realized my mistake. My ?question? is, is there a way to relocate this vacuum line so i dont throw a CEL or will it kill my BOV and turbo by not having it on?? Thanks and please dont flame, im just starting to gain knowledge on turbos

i did put it back, however the sound that it produced was the sound of an aftermarket BOV. I liked the sound (don't flame) however i do not know if it will hurt anything.
Ok, so i need to leave it attached at all times then?

Yes you need that hooked up at all times, unless you put a delete plate and use an external BOV.

okay, i was just making sure. I like the sound of a BOV even though there are no measurable performance gains, just thought id ask people who are more familiar with the functionality of turbos. Do you know if HAHN will be developing the Intercooler piping with a BOV flange??

However it will be the best of both worlds, external, and recirculates
PS another reason to get the Hahn intake and Hahn charge tubes, as you will need those (most likley) to support this setup.
