But in simple to block the bov I get a 1" stopper an put it in the bov hole and bloke the vacuum line with a nail or something? That it?

Impellor Member 835 Member For: 14y 9m 20d Gender: Not Telling Posted 06/02/13 01:12 AM Share Posted 06/02/13 01:12 AM If you want to retain the factory look, you can use 2 X 600ml coke bottle lids. I removed the ridges on the lids ( with a smooth finish, but its not really necessary, so I could get them out of the hosing easier). Put them over both of the crossover outlets and placed hosing back on and clamped where the lids are. Easy, 100% effective and looks just like factory except thr clamps are closer to the end.
