yes i think so. im not gonna hook up my boost controller so i think this how i hook it up..... intake mani to bov, then from bov, to lower wastegate. and top wastegate just atmosphere (unless i want boost controller the lower goes to controller then to top of gate).

but another problem is that when i mounted my BOV it is positioned REALLLYY high and hits my hood when i close it, anyone else have this problem or have a way to fix it?

well you would need to move your BOV. probably should have checked that before getting it welded.

and no you have your routing wrong.

BOV and wastegate are two separate systems

1) intake mani to BOV

2) intake mani to wastegate lower port, top port vented to atmosphere(you would cut this line and put the boost controller somewhere in between)

The boost control routing is all in the directions. If the bov is hitting the hood you need to rotate the charge pipe down more. The kit was designed on the the 2.4 auto. The kit does go on the 2.2-2.4 manual cars but the you might have to make some of your own adjustments.

The op forgot to mention that he has a 2.2 car, so he only has one port to use on the intake and can only use it with the fitting I sent him.

OP, you have to give all the info if you want the correct answer to the ? your asking. To most people you could have a home made kit. In this case Blazin would be correct in saying you should have checked that.

I had to get a 45 degree mandrel bent piece of aluminum tubing to make my bov clear the hood on my 2.2. maybe that will help you.
