On the 93 FD, you need to pull off the top relief valve from the air box. Put a small breather filter on the BOV, it is about 3/4 inch. This will keep the air from backlashing into the BOV and cause a malfunction.
You then need to block off the hole you pulled the tube from on the air box. Parts stores sell rubber caps that work fine.
HHSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
There you go!

cool this doesnt sacrafise any reliability in any parts? this sounds like something im gonna go try.. i used to have a 96 eclipse gst b4 i got my fd.. all i did was buy a knn air filter and i heard a big wapshhhh... i think eclipses have the loudest stock BOV but i could be wrong, mine was very loud... if i get a air filter for my fd will i get the same affect? or do i still have to dissconnect the hose?

there is a vertical line of two small hoses attached to the airbox. remove the bottom one.
doesnt make the car less reliable, but it does realease oil mist into the engine.
for me, i dont even notice the oil =p

actually that turkey thing sounds like it was compressor surge, which would say the bov was not functioning properly. It should sound like a big wooosh/hisss/swish thing.

another loud stock bov is surprisingly the volvo s40 1.9T.
A friend replaced the restricting air box with simple intake system and it can be heard from far away.
