I just put this greddy bov and it has this extra nipple on it and i dint know what to do with it. Should I plug it up get a T and extra hose and run the hose from the top of the bov to it? I'll post a pic up so you can see it.

I have this same question. I drive mine right now with nothing hooked to that nipple. So far the car does fine but i always wondered if i needed to do something with it.
 
That what I'm woundering, I wounder if this thing is giving me my uncontrollable boost
 
That probably stems from a wastegate issue or maybe even BC.

I dont have anything hooked to that nipple and i have complete control over my boost.
 
That nipple is optional. It can be tapped to a boost source to help open the diaphram quicker, but you don't have to do so. If you do have it hooked up, it changes the sound of the BOV a bit as well.
 
Its for an electronic boost controller it doesnt leak at all. But the greddy type s bov sucks they make boost leak out your turbo!(I believe thats an ebay bov though?) I used to have one but i got a hks sqv3 and doesnt leak anymore. The uncontrolable boost problem is gonna be a vaccum line on the wastegate.....check for cracked or rotten lines!!!!! Thats most likely your problem or you have a junk ass boost controler or possibly the wastegate.
