It really depends on how you're going to mount it, and if it comes with a specific flange for your car or not

that is an atmospheric BOV so no need to have it plumbed back.
i believe that's wat you're refering to.

That can be plumbed back in. All you need is the HKS recirculation kit :wink:

Why not? Our cars are designed to have them plumbed back in unless you are running an aftermarket computer.

I've run this type of b.o.v to the atmo and never had problems with the stock ECU. I have heard of people having issues though.

Yeah thats the BOV I've got (in the pic). That recirculation kit you were talking about, I have a piece that looks exactly like it in the box. I'd get a pic for you but jpeg site i use to host files wont let me put any on for some odd reason. I bought a specific kit for the GTO from japan.

if its specific for your vehicle it should just clamp straight in, no probs.Faust said:

by tightening the screw up on externaly venting valves you go against the reason of having it in the first place unless its only there for rice value.
alot of afm sensored cars suffer all sorts of problems when venting them to atmosphere,I had so much trouble with my trust typeR running to atmosphere that i plumbed it back in,it fixed most of the problem but it still never ran right.
after talking to some pretty clued up guys about afm equipped cars i learnt some interesting stuff,afm's are great on standard cars but as soon as you start upgrading turbo's and intakes etc you start messing with its operating parameters,some cars will simply have no problems where others have trouble alot of which owners simply live with,one way of fixing it is to relocate the afm from before the turbo and install it after the intercooler and before the throttle body this way the afm is not affected by the compressor wheels fluctuation especialy with upgraded compressor wheels,running the afm after the intercooler gives it a more consistent reading and is fine with the air being forced through it with boost pressure rather than before the turbo
i sold my car before i could put that into practise so not entirely sure how well that works.

Ok, I've still got the stock BOV on my Evolution 1 GSR, but the car is equipped with a MINEs ECU which looks to have been chipped.
With that said, do you think it may be ok to get the HKS SSQ and vent to air? Or should I instead get the adapter to plumb it back?
Thanks in advance,
