Default Blitz BOV

Hi all,

Just changing my Turbosmart BOV to a Blitz one I bought off here but I've run in to a little issue.

The hose on the top of the BOV now appears to small to fit the slightly larger fitting on the Blitz. Has anyone else had this problem, if so is it just a case of finding an adaptor from a plumbers merchant to step up the hose size?

Thanks all!

I have a Blitz BOV on my Impreza, are you referring to the Vacuum line? I'm sure mine is just a normal 3mm line.

Yeah sorry, its the internal diameter which is more of the problem. The brass fitting on the blitz is slightly bigger than the one on my turbosmart. I've tried stretching the hose but no luck. I should mention its on a Blobeye.

Update; I've hacked up an old hose that I've managed to slowly work on to the Blitz vacuum port. Just need to order a 3mm-3mm hose connector now and it should be good.
