Alright i ordered UICP Intake and MBC started installing everything and look at the way this UICP fits

HOW i am suppose to get the return tube in with that big of a bend no one knows and the place i got it from has yet to return my email (rather not say name yet)

Most 1G pipes have the bov on the bottom, its not upside down. If it doesnt fit the other way around meaning the bov closer to the intake, then you will have to source out another hose for the recirculation...i had to do that after my fmic install.

your car has ABS. did u order an uicp made for a car with abs? you can always cut the flange and weld it so the bov faces a different direction.

Go to the homedepot pvc section. They have fairly cheap 90 and 45 degree plastic turns the exact same size as the bov return hose.

You can make it happen. My bov return hose used to do a 270 degree turn before getting in. Just as long as the air is getting back into the intake pipe, it's no big deal.

Be creative!!

Oh, bend that hard line up so you can get a rubber hose on that BOV. No problem with bending it a bit, just dont crack or crimp it.

I didnt put it in upside down i can tell you that if i flipped it there would be about 6 inchs of pipe comming out of my hood. I might be able to have someone weld it on there at a different angle cuz i dont know how to, and as far as bending the hard line i could do that but the bend is so severe there is goin to be a big kink in the line

Thanks for your help so far

PVC pipe is a way bad idea... the stuff gets hot and ####s up your motor, your best option is to cut the flange and weld the blow off valve so it faces a different direction...

OK do this: Get some shop vac hose, its perfect size for the 1gbov and dump tube... it will bend anyway you want it to, no hacking or rewelding, and it sounds cool as hell especially when its bent a couple times.
You shant be disappointed, just make sure it doesnt touch the head cause it can melt, if it does put a piece of that rubber stuff thats on the stock dump tube on it, and youre good to go.

False. I had PVC intercooler piping on my car for over 2 years. No I'll effects.

This is bov return air. It's fine.

how about instead of turning it into a frankNsteinUICP you just return that and get the right pipe

i would love to return it but The place i got it from has yet to email me back i'm on my 3rd email and i got it new from a vendor on here i got the thing to stay in there but its besides the point because its rigged up which i am not fond of but i'll figure it out

thanks again guys

Why don't you find their number and give them a call, some companys are real lacking in e-mail support, i had this problem with sbr. I sent them 4 different emails, got no response till i called them.

You guys are making a big deal out off this. Just go to your local auto parts and get some radiator hose that fits your need. You might have to buy 2 hoses and cut/put them together to make it work. A true DSMer should know this by now..
