I have the RFL...mine's mounted right before the TB pointing down so the air can go to the ground. Turning it around and blowing it up muffled it too much. It's sitting right next to the tranny dipstick.

I'm so sick of typing all this.

1. Put a 5/32" vacuum hose (or a close size) running from ur vacuum tree to the nipple on the BOV.

2. Find the hose that runs from ur CBV, and disconnect it from the intake manifold. Cap that nipple off.

3. Put a T in the hose from ur BOV/vacuum tree, and hook the hose from the CBV up to it. Put a one way check valve in the hose to ur CBV, make sure air can flow to it, but not away from it.

Do this and ur BOV will be nice and loud, w/o it it won't really vent except until high boost.

No attitude intended, it was supposed to be funny since I've typed all that about 8 times in the past 2 weeks. It should be fine if u do the vacuum lines. Blanking the CBV off will only eliminate a leaking CBV, or eliminate a future leaking CBV. But unless there's something wrong w/ it, it's not worth the trouble to take off. Try the vacuum lines and let us know how it works.
