    Blow off valve provision

    Does anyone have a BOV or a place to put one? Aaron's car has a 3/4 threaded ( capped off ) port on the intercooler piping but mine does not

    I am installing one right now on mine. Was going to post photos when I was done.
    Should have something by the end of the day.

    Re: Blow off valve provision

    ah, ok, I installed one that I had kicking around from the turbo /6 that I threw on. I made a little pipe that goes in place of the hose between the airbox and the throttle body. The one I have is only to see how it behaves. Plastic one is kinda ugly but I have an aluminum one on the way. It seems to drive better all around.

    Do you have the port on the intercooler pipe?

    I am making a new pipe and air box mod between the TB and the inlet to the intercooler.
    Running to get a couple pets right now that I need…...

    Oh am NOT modifying my air box that came with the GTP, it is a spare I had.

    ugh, I keep forgetting to snap some pics of mine... I have mine in a short tube right before the throttle body where the 4-5 inch hose used to be.
