to you guys who have upgraded your BOV, are you leaving the stock BOV installed and just disconnecting the vac hose? or removing it and caping the holes?

also, anyway that one of you could send me some decent pics of your FMIC installation on an S14? or point me in the direction of some? preferably of one using greddy pipes.

any of the pics i can find do not show me anything really usefull.

You could leave it connected if you want or disconnect the vacuum line it doesnt matter but u will never have boost high enough in the SMIC to leak past the BOV so it is up to u whether u want to keep it there or cap off the hose. Most people wont upgrade the BOV until they move to using a FMIC but its all up to u either way u will be safe

i am moving up to a fmic. but the greddy piping i have seems to have the hook ups for the stock blow off valve. granted, i did not get the front clip, or directions. so i have nothing to reference too. so i am just guessing thats what they are for, i can't think of anything else they would be.
