Seriously though, thanks for going to the effort of posting those up.

But even more seriously - how the hell do I install this BOV?

Do I need a L shaped rubber hose?


I imagined in my land of fairies and chocolate that it would just be a case of removing the stock bov and replacing it with the HKS SSQ...

LOL I dont even recognise where in the engine that second image is from...:confused:

:confused:  well ive got the hks bit of pipe kicking around some were if you want it?

If your not very mechanical minded it doesnt matter coz this is easy!

Step one; Remove the original BOV  from the intake box and cap it off.

Step two; Remove the other end of the BOV (you mite need to take of the intake pipes to do this, also this is were the HKS BOV is connected).

Step three; Theirs a bolt just below the pipe were you removed the BOV end in step two, bolt the bracket to this.

Step four; Connect the hks BOV to the bracket and to the pipe via a 90 elbow.

Step five; Connect the small hose from the hks BOV to the intake manifold.

Step six; reconnect the intake pipes and JOB DONE.

This is bassically it.

And I\'ve only just finished putting the new filters on :(

Do I need that hose?

Why didnt you use yours?

In picture #4 item 9 the 90 elbow, thats the bit i have that you can have if you want? Dont need it as ive gone single and had to plumb it up to the intake elbow.

Thinking about it you dont need that 90 elbow i sent you, only if you want it to go were it was designed to.  Just use your standard pipe for the recirculating valve. You mite need to buy th small bit of pipe which go\'s from the intake manifold to the dump valve/BOV.
