You can do this if you put a check valve (sprinkler store) in front of the BOV. But seriously, why? It's nothing but a noise maker and the check valve is the very definition of ghetto-rigging. Why bother getting an aftermarket BOV? It has the potential to cause problems as your vehicle has an AFM. Just use the stock one which works perfectly fine.

You can but you need a few things.
Top half of a plastic coke bottle
Small hose to connect bottle and bov
Suction cup thing(size of a quarter/holds things to glass)
rubberband
paperclip
Something to plug the TID
Under $5 BOV
Here is the best pic I have of my old stock bov. My buddy made it and it worked great til I upgraded. In the pic if you look above the air filter you can see a silver painted top half of a coke bottle. Maybe a better write-up on this design is around here somewhere. Anybody else doing this??
