bov on a fmic ???
 
My blow off bolts straight to the intercooler wich is right next to the throttle bodie (im sure you all knew that) but ive been made aware when installing my fmic kit i should try and keep the bov as close to the throttle bodie as possible ,makes sence just not sure how to go about doing this ,can sum one tell me or even better sumone got a few pics i can look at with this done ,thanks , dan .

Does not make a huge difference where you want to place it. People have argued to put it on the hot or cold side for a while now!
Seems most FMIC kits have the BOV attachment just somewhere on the cold side around 6-12" from the throttle body!

That's where mine feeds into, and it was fitted by the late, great, Harvey.

You'll need an adaptor, and a silicon joiner.

Pic of mine with my home made adaptor, to give you a rough idea. Mine is an early car, so not totally accurate for your needs.

So its just a case of making a plate that i can bolt my bov to and a silicone hose the other side and looks like weld a piece of pipe to my intercooler pipe that i can attach the hose to ??

If you need an adaptor plate let me know. I have a couple spare. (depending on age of your car)

You should already have the take off on the FMIC pipe, mate.

You need 1 adaptor plate, 1 hose joiner from the FMIC pipe to joiner and 1 hose joiner from recirc back to the inlet pipe.

I think one of these should fit then mate. They are both Harvey items. Very nice quality, finish and fit and both unused.

PM me if you want one :thumb:
