its actually just the opposite those are the more expensive connectors like tyrant said it allows more flex for engine movement and it saves the cheap plastic endtanks on the SMIC
TX, im not recricing now, i have that part of the perrin capped off. how is there air moving back up the intake to hit maf if im not recircing air back into the intake?
im not saying its not, just wondering how.
I saw that someone moved there maf to the cold pipe that proboly would solve my problem, but how long could the maf stand that.
its using the stock vac line that the bpv uses, i was thinking the same thing maybe its not getting enuf vac so im planing on changing vac source to the brake booster line.
right now im waiting on getting hardpipes to see if that affects anything before i tap the brake booster line.
me and shannon have a couple of things that we are going to work on to see if we can fix the problem.
Only if your BOV functions differently. Depending on the adjustment settings of you BOV it may be able to open sooner/easier than the stock BPV thus eliminating the turkey/compressor surge.
Also the stock valve is only good for about 10-12 psi. My friend Jake's blew open on the dyno at 12psi. Huge POP and whooshing sound. We all thought it was his motor blowing. If you are going to run elevated boost levels it's a good idea to upgrade your BOV.

You BOV is not opening soon enough to catch all the air blowing back toward the MAF. I had the same problem with the BOV on the intercooler>throttle body pipe. All the air the BOV doesn't catch still forces it's way back through the system and up past the turbo. With the BOV on the Turbo>intercooler pipe it cought all that air and no stalling occured for me.
I've since switched from the Perrin SRI to the Injen CAI. That was the only change in my set up and I can now run open vent again with no problems. Check out the second post in this thread :[/QUOTE]BOV list thread for more information the various set ups I've run.

No one knows yet. I think BrianMP5T has been running this way for quite some time with no problems. I also think Caspolis has switched to this set up too. I would suggest getting a replacement MAF from a junkyard first. Send a PM to either "The Man" or "LinuxRacr" to find out which other MAFs are compatible with out cars. i think one from an older 626 is the same, they'll know for sure cause The Man told Linux who has it on his car now.
