Default Custom DV relocation kit made!!

So after purchasing the forge splitter, I decided to relocate it due to the tight fit it had in the stock location... total cost was around $25 A friend of mine who actually did most of the fabricating already had some straight 50mm and 30mm pipe. We cut and welded those pipes together to make the piece that goes into the IC pipe, got some longer vac line and all we really had left to find was some hose to go from the DV back to the intake pipe.

After a few hours of looking, we got the break of a lifetime and found a pre bent/curved piece of radiator hose at advance auto... it wasn't untill we got home and fitted it in the engine bay that we realized it fit like a glove, WOW this random piece of radiator hose looked like it was made for this car, talk about a perfect fit!!!!

Here are pics of the finished product









For $25 and a couple hours work, I'm more than happy!!

It made a huge difference as far as BOV sound, by moving it away from the intake it makes the sound much cleaner a lot more like a true VTA valve. Having it right there at the intake you had the mixed sound of the air going into the intake and the atmosphere, pretty much just gave you a rush of air sound... If youre not going to relocate this valve its not really worth buying in my opinion.
