So you want to vent your bov, these are some basic things that you need to know. The car
runs like crap due to the air reading in the begging of the cycle. In order to change that you must run a GM maf and translator to make the reading after the bov. The car runs funny if you vent becuase the car knows that the bov releases a measured amount of air back into the intake, thus if you vent, the air doesn't return. The way to properly vent is to purchase the things below. There are ways to make it cheaper but i did it the way that i am doing it. Purchase a upper intercooler pipe that is cut for a GM Maf and comes with couplers. All pictures are below to show were the GM Maf sits on the pipe. The translator hooks up to the GM Maf and translate the language to dsm language. Below the list of stuff you need is pictures of what the items look like and how they look on a car.
