It sure beats payin $70 on ebay or more elsewhere... it only cost me about $13 and about 1.5 hrs

I paid $18, recirculating the BOV was interesting.

[96spyderman]

so joe... you did this too? Why was the bov recirc interesting?

[JoeWagon]

because i dont have the tools to cut an angle into ABS plastic, so I had to make it straight out, and it doesn't fit well.

[96spyderman]

All I did was cut the hole smaller than needed and then used a dremel to grind in the angle needed..kinda oval like...
The one problem I did have was the pvc glue didn't hold enough for the twist/torque the engine has and the BOV side didn't so I had to silicone it in so now it has flex.
For anyone who ever plans on doin it... just use a heat gun to heat tube till flexible and bend and hold at angle needed...

[dsmodder]

does it matter where the recirculation tube enters the intake tube? i plan on building the "homedepot intake" but instead of inserting the dump in the same area as stock i was thinking of dumping it closer to the turbo. what do you guys think

hey 96 spyder does that ecu chip reprogramming really work? From what i have read it doesnt work at all on Turbo eclipses...

[kjewer1]

Shouldnt matter where you dump it in.

Really couldn't tell ya... it was done by previous owner... He had to send it in and it cost about $300... I wish I had a stock ECU to throw in to be able to compare.... sorry I do have the ooomph though.... I have heard and read that it doesn't do anything also... Oh well not my ching that did it!!!

[96spyderman]

Nope doesn't matter where ya dump it in.... as long as it goes back to general area...
