Did I vent my bov correctly? (Pic Included)

Well today I decided to vent my bov to the atmosphere. I wanted to know if I did it correctly. I included a pic so any suggestions are welcome. Also Will this have any affect on the engine besides making the woosh sound louder?

Thanks

Thats right. Although you really don't need that 2 Inch section of hose attached to the valve.

did you cap off the hole on the intake? if not, it will suck in dirty air into the turbos. a 20oz bottle cap fits perfectly on to the peice of rubber you left on the bov. just take it off the bov and put it on the intake box. then put a clamp on the bottle cap to hold it there.

Holy ****! We had someone do it right!

Parts stores sell rubber caps that will fit over the hole on the intake box. Get a small crankcase/valvecover filter and stick it in the rubber hose or you'll get black stuff everywhere.
