The stock BOV is on the connector pipe from the turbo to the intercooler intake. There is a straight hose from the turbo to the plasic/metal connector that then connects to the 90 degree bend intercooler hose. The connector is where the stock BOV attatches.


good luck,
Kris

i was thinking of sealing the hole from the air intake part of where the stock bov was in and making a hose that'll connect the new bov to fit directly to the hole from the turbo part of the connection where the other end of bov was at.??..
