Title: BOV Dump valve install on apexi intake

Sorry if the attached pic doesnt work,
Need a little guidance, have a aftermarket dual drive bov on the way and want to clear this up before I make a mistake.

The original BOV is the little brown one I believe (circled red)
The vac hose off the standard bov goes to the plennum same as the aftermarket one will, fine
Now the bit I\'m unsure of... the tube (outlined in red) going to the air filter is where I\'m going to plug in my new bov
And I need to plug the hole coming off the air filter (circled blue)

If someone can confirm please
Thanks in advance

just disconnect the pipe that comes from the y pipe to the bov and attach it to the new one, you can leave the old bov where it is then as it should be closed.
put the red vac line on the new bov too
