GFB Blowoff Valve Questions...

I did a search and was not able to find a specific answer to this particular BOV.

I'm installing this on my S5 TII and I'm still learning about turbos.

What's the best way to install this BOV and where do I want it placed? Currently I have no airbox and the stock BOV is vented to atmosphere.

Here a pic:


Is this a correct install?


Thanks guys,
~Jason

Install it between the turbo and intercooler.

I'm amazed your car runs with the stock BOV vented to the atmosphere.

you can place the BOV anywhere along the intercooler piping and it will be fine. most people put it on the turbo side(hotside) so they can connect the vacuum line easier.

if your keeping the stock intercooler then only place you can put it is on the hot side.
