Hello everyone. I have been searching for a while now but i cant find the info i need. I may jus be trippin' but i have the Blitz Super Sound BOV and as far as i know, it is DESIGNED to vent to the atmosphere but i take into consideration that the air it vents is metered and supposed to be vented back to the intake. Now i might be a noob lol but i have done much research and try to learn as much as i can about (not just my DSM :grin: ) but mechanics as a whole as i think its fascinating. Sorry that was off topic but anyway, i have heard of about a recirculation "flange" and this was after i bought hoses and i was just wondering if it is absolutely necessary to purchase and use this flange they talk about. i would greatly appreciate the help because i plan to do the piping today and i am a lil worried. thanks

I think the flange you mean is one that will bolt to the BOV so that you can run a pipe from the BOV to vent back into the intake.

The blitz does have a removable "horn" and the flange would bolt there. I don't know who makes a flange for it though

I don't believe that blitz has anything like that. best bet is hks, greddy have it for their's

Does your car bog when you shift?

no it doesnt bog but but ive been venting for about a month now and i feel latley that my DSM idles a little weird after hard driving. would it be safe to just put a fitting over the "mouth" of the BOV or do i NEED a special fitting?

Just make the "vent" get back into the intake. As long as it doesn't leak your good.

Thanks EMC im sorry to post about this topic but like i said i searched for a long **** time. Anyway ima try that and i appreciate the help

don't be sorry.

yeah i had similar problems..it sounds "cool" and is much louder but its better to just recirculate because it felt as though i was doing damage to the car..almost stalling on starts and rough shifts..wasnt worth it. my bov is now a quite purge which i like better actually, gives it more of a sleeper aspect lol
