Greddy elbow with BOV
I recently bought some parts here on the forum one of which was a greddy elbow with a BOV installed on it. Currently i am running my stock twins and intercooler but will soon be putting a new set of twins and a trust smic that i picked up awhile back. what can i do to eliminate the stock BOV and use the one on the Greddy elbow? Is this even possible? Then elbow also has another small hole in it which im guessing is for a water/meth injection kit but i am not going to be using and will have to plug it. whats the best way to plug it as i will be running a single turbo in the future and would like to have that option. Any advice possible pics of other similar setups? Thanks in advance. I will try and post pics up tomorrow after work.

in order to run the greddy BOV all you need to do is spot the small hose that goes to the stocker and re-route it to the nipple on greddy bov. Nest remove the stocker and plug exposed the hose.
Given that your elbow is already set up for A.I. it makes a perfect excuse to add it. There is no reason to wait until you are going single as the benefits of AI also apply to stock fd's.

Ok I kind of understand what your saying. I would reroute the small vacuum hose off the nipple on the stock one to the one on the greddy. there is a nipple on the back of the greddy bov and a threaded hollow small pipe on top would i hook it to the nipple on the back ? Thats what i would think at least. And as for the stock bov which is hooked to the intake tube as i have a trust airrinx dual kit on there...can i replace the whole BOV with a straight piece of tubing or should i just leave it in place hooked up is there any advantages/disadvantages of doing each? i am also looking to hook up an AEM true boost controler and system while i am doing this is that possible ?

On your stock twins (iirc) should be one hose for the stock bov and one hose for the stock crv. Basically you can pull both of these and their hoses and cap them off with a large silicone vacuum cap (forget the exact size but available online or at your local auto parts store). Just zip tie the caps down and you will be good.
The vacuum line that went from your UIM to your stock BOV you now route from your UIM to your new BOV.
I would say it is highly likely that there are pictures of this if you search. =)
