APEX Blow Off Valve Question...

[Bigwig]

I recently purchased an APEX BOV, and am just wondering what accessories (ie. hoses, clamps, etc...) I may need and if anyone has suggestions...thanx

apexi bov i assume? if you're trying to use the stock pipes, i'm not sure if you can run a hose to the inlet of the bov. you might. there's no recirculation fitting for it though so you'll have to vent to atm. if you have hard pipes, you'll need the flange for the bov.

Yeah, I'm using the stock pipes...is it good, bad to vent to atm? Seeing how I haven't mounted one before I wanna get the info to do this correct....

forgot...

...i have an injen cai if that makes any sort of difference...

nah, won't make much of a diff. from the pics i've looked at (i just ran a quick search), the inlet is rectangular. but it also seems like apexi makes a flange that bolts up to the inlet that you can run a hose to. this is what you'll need, or something similar to it. a shop may be able to fab something up for you. shouldn't be too hard. then just run a hose from the stock intercooler piping inlet to the bov. you won't be able to recirculate so you'll have to learn to drive around the stalling. you'll also have to cap off the inlet for the bov on the injen. that's pretty much the basic setup. lemme know how it sounds
