I don't know if I'd go as far as to call someone retarded over a post, but yes do search before you post, especially because this is the most common question asked on this forum for some reason.

Anyway, you want to get a DV(Diverter Valve) this will re-route the air back into the intake tract allowing the MAF to read the excess air, a BOV will release the air into the atmosphere not allowing the MAF to read the air causing your car to run rich.

Welcome to the forums and learn to love the search.

EDIT: Here is a good sticky thread that has a lot of good links in it. https://www.audiforums.com/m_402135/tm.htm

Actually, when there is a thread titled with the exactquestion he is asking for an answer to in the first 3 threads in the forums, and heSTILL posts about it, one has to believe that mental retardation has come into play. Its so retarded, I cant even think of a good analogy to copare it to. Its like... retarded... Derrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
