Ok so i just installed a CXRacing front mount intercooler on my car. The kit included a BOV, its a knock off of a greddy type s.

My question is, why does this BOV have two ports for vacuum lines? My old blitz BOV only had one line... and i do not know what i am supposed to do with the smaller port on my new BOV??????

One other question. I have a MBC. I used to have it hooked up to the J-pipe nipple and the wastegate actuator. Now with the new front mount intercooler and piping, there is no longer a j-pipe nipple.
Would i be alright if i just tee'd into a manifold vacuum line?


Thanks for the help.

Leave the lower port vented to the atmosphere aka don't hook anything up to it.

You could do that, but you want the shortest line possible and you do not want to tap the BOV line either.

If you do not have a j pipe anymore, then you can either tap the compressor housing or put a nipple on the LICP somewhere (closer to the turbo the better)
