I know that the vac line I got is but rubber doesnt have the threaded stuff in it. I just changed the bov back over to stock and got my other lil mod with the 4cm long vac line with bolt in the top on plug onto the t-peice. gives the tutututu sound.

Had to jam the BOV back in so I'm hoping the small hose is still connected properly and not kinked.Should Ibe worried about this? going to drive to work tomorrow before I pull crossmember off and have a good look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the rubber ones not the plastic.Do yourself a favor and buy some screw clamps from Supercrap so you can easily change them when you get sick of the sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSK Member 340 Member For: 17y 2m 18d Gender: Male Posted 14/07/08 08:14 AM Share Posted 14/07/08 08:14 AM (edited) What's the size of the vaccum line from the BOV guys!?!!!? Really wanna redo my BOV mod and mount the filter/bov over the cross over. Only way I can do this is to get a longer vaccum line and need it's size. Anyone?!?!!!?Did this tonight on mine, Just abit worried about the really small pipe that comes of the end of the bov. Had to jam the BOV back in so I'm hoping the small hose is still connected properly and not kinked.Should Ibe worried about this? going to drive to work tomorrow before I pull crossmember off and have a good lookMine is massively bent too However, I knew it was going to be bent, and before putting it back on, I tried to almost turn fold it in half, and even half folded, air still goes through really easily.
