im just in need of some guidance, i have this bov that i got with the car, im just trying to hook this up when i do the fmic.

from my understanding and research, it looks like i need one of these adapter pipes somewhere between the turbo and intercooler.


can someone please confirm if im right or wrong? thanks

The bov is located between the throttle body and intercooler. From the look of it you have a vent-to-air setup on that turbo xs bov, and since your probably running a factory MAP system setup you should be fine. If its AFM, in the other hand you will need to get it re-circulated. Depending on the FMIC plumbing, you may either have to go with an adapter flange to mate up the bov to the intercooler piping itself, or weld it on (which I don't recommend because it becomes permanent).

I have a 2nd gen 3s with a afm
So is there a write up of how to set it up? It seems too basic for anybody to make one bug I'm still not familiar with turbo so can't be too sure

Will that adaptor be fine?

Eliminate that useless flap-door AFM! Go the standalone route

Yes that will work.
The bov just vents off the extra air in the intercooler piping when you lift off the throttle.

The only problem is that you might have to adjust the bov so that it doesn't open too much because on a car with an Air Flow Meter, you will be purging metered air and it will cause the car to run rich between shifts.

This is all super basic turbo101 type of stuff, so I recommend you do some google searching and youtubing to get you up to speed with how a turbo works.
