Synchronic BOV installed... pics and impressions

I got rid of my TiAL 50mm VTA bov and made the switch to the Synchronic bov after driving and riding in Freddies Evo 8. Thanks Fred! It drives sooooooooooooooo much better now. I have a bit of throttle hang that I need to tune out, but the car is drive able now! Here are the pics of how I routed the tubing and the new intake I made. I used a TiAL 50mm adapter flange from Synapse (but it didn't come with the clamp! pah!)





Fun pic for the NW folks. Freddie and I on Halloween


Gigi and Me... Freddie and Courtney. BTW... I was Scott Storch (aka d-bag) for Halloween lol

God I missed out that night. I really should have came. I was going to be a mech... I had black "grease" all over my face too!

Now I'm going to try and go to bed again!

Nice, I was watching the testing for that bov, it lets 35 psi off almost instantly.

How do you like it?

Mikey, you are still the only person that Yoshi has "dominated"

Thanks for posting those pics Eric... I think that is the only two pics of us together... we will have to get some more before I roll outta here. I still don't know what the plan is for Wed. I may still come up and do steak night with you guys... it sucks always finding out stuff last minute...

So will the APS even work with your setup, Eric? I guess we'll have to see. Real nice work on the intake pipe!

It's actually the accent more than the height.

Yeah but now you don't have the giggling schoolgirl going off between shifts! Engine bay looks great man and the fab work you've done appears top notch as usual. The car sounds like it's really hauling the mail these days Hi to G from Mo and I!

I just installed this BOV as well and like it but have recently started to have a leak from the recirculation fitting, how do you have the the recirculation fitting seated in the BOV? pressed to the bottom? pulled to the top? Is your fitting lose at all?

Your install looks great btw.
