hey guys I'm looking for some pics from some of you guys running recirculating system instead of the BOV. where did you install the valve and how did you route the hoes;)? I am doing all the IC piping myself and its going to be on a TRM tune with a similar setup to the TRM stg2 turbo kit. I wanted to do a BOV but do not want to deal with a rich spike or lagg. I would still be interested in doing the BOV if I could run my setup as blow through but have been told that TRM doesnt tune for blow through. let me know what you think the best placement is and best way to route it. I have also been looking the the turbosmart dual port which recircs some and vents some.

TRM has stated that they have blow through in the works, I'd ask them. Look at my build thread, I have lots of pipe pics. My BPV is located by the AC compressor, as it provides a stealthy install and short hose routing.

ah! thats what I was thinking. if I did decide to go reciculating valve I think I would mount it on the charge pipe as close to the AC and intake pipe as possible. I have to place an order with TRM within the next few days so I will ask them about the blow through set up tuning options. Thanks

Bret can get you a good price on a Synapse BPV - I love mine! You can place it on the tb side of things, but then you'll want to make a nice aluminum tube to go across the engine bay so it looks clean and then the pita factor went up.
