open atmosphere
My BOV is currently 'open atmosphere' and it's eating my spar plugs away pre-maturely. my guess is that open atmosphere is bad unless it's tuned that way? i heard that i need to recirculate it so that there is a hose that connects my BOV to my intake, i found the recirculation kit for my BOV but i cannot find that hose anywhere...what is that hose called and where can i find one? thanks

That little S looking tube at the far right is what you need. You could try to fabricate one yourself. I believe there is a write up in the tech articles about this. I don't know what the actual name of it is, but I'm sure if you made a visit to the dealer they would be able to find it for you and order it. As far as I know it's a dealer only item. I know it will cause you to run a little rich, and probably decrease the life of your spark plugs, but I don't think it will ruin them within a resonable amount of time. I ran with no oxygen sensor for 4 months, just checked my plugs the other day and they are fine. You should have a better idle and no trouble codes once you get this tube on.

Re: open atmosphere
I think the best shot would be a parts store, I think you can order one and if not you could probably find a radiator hose that would work ok.
