The res is the resevior shown above. I say install the bov where the Tee peice is and leave the plug where it is. That res(evior) is messing things up. Cut it out of the system since it is redundent and removing it off the car is better. Then try that out. If it works better, then undo the battery for 10mins and go from there

What I have gathered so far.. what cincy says I should do would be plug the BOV into hose #4 eliminating the res and leaving the plug in hose #2

The reason Chaos's setup with the 004 looks different is that he has a B5, and your car is newer andhasa different setupwith the res. Don't worry about the physical "position" of his 004 to yours. Just think of it in terms of where the boost pressure isbeing released from - thepipebetween the turbo andintercooler, andthe vaccum line goesto the top of the BOV.

So thats why the car is running and the valve is releasing the pressure like it should, but the res is messing it all up.

I want to do what Cincy is telling me to do then correct? Im suppose to eliminate the res? I have to take the car in tom morning at 8am too to have the license plate lights fixed... they will kill me! Im gonna have to move that back

Im so worried about fecking something up []

My cars still under warrantee. If I go over tom morning and get the license plate lights fixed, they will deff notice the car driving weird, see the check engine light, run the code, and then see the BOV.. installed wrong to boot! haha, or man I need to take a chill pill

I just want to set the BOV up right before I even think about going to the audi dealership.

With the engine light on, from a stop I step on the gas and the car barley moves feels like I have to baby it and then it picks up all of a sudden.

Im going to set it up like your telling me to tom as soon as I get up
