Simple BOV question, QUICK answer needed! (searched)
So I just put in a Blitz SS. Do I have to block off that pipe and nipple that goes towards the air box?

yes to the pipe. that's the recirculation passage. for the stock bypass valve.
I am not sure wbout the vac hose nipple... how do you have the BOV hooked up? it will need a source of boost/vaccume to operate properly. if you can get a pic, it would help a lot.

I have it hooked up to the IC pipe and the original vacuum line which leaves the stock pipe and vacuum nipple empty. The BOV works fine; just wondering if I need to block off what I left open now.

I just ran out for a picture. I've taped off the nipple on the bottom but the hose in question is the one with the blue dot at the bottom. If this is completely wrong (which shouldn't be the case since it seems to be working just fine), someone tell me now before I make a fool out of myself :p

looks fine to me.
block off anything you left open or it will be a leak.
somebody else chime in though, I'm used to my VR4's setup... not these single turbo rotary thingies.

I was expecting a HKS SSQV in the mail to be honest, ended up with this thing which will have to do for now...
Thanks for the quick responses guys. So block off blue dot pipe as well?
