How do you vent the Blow off Valve?
How do you vent the stock BOV, or even use an aftermaket vented one for that case? There must be some modification that needs to be done since it is re-routed back to before the AFM so that when it releases air it goes back through the AFM to ensure that you don't run your engine rich while venting. How do you vent a BOV when you have an AFM without screwing this up???

The bov does not re-route back before the AFM. the stock bov (air bypass valve) routes to the turbo inlet duct after the AFM. when you open vent it, you just block the hole on the TID and put a one way valve on the stock BOV (it sucks air back in too).
An aftermarket BOV doesnt need the one way valve. Do a search for venting BOV and there used to be a few threads and how to's.
