Begin by unplugging the pressure sensor connector, and removing it's stay from the factory pipe.

Next disconnect the Large recirculation hose and small 6mm reference hose from the bypass valves.

Loosen the hose clamps that hold the rubber couplers to the throttle body, and to the fender intercooler pipe. You can loosen the clamp through the small opening between the air cleaner and the front reinforcement.

Remove the pipes from the vehicle. Swap the pressure sensors to the HKS Pipes. You may need to add some washers to the bolt to install them.

Take the couplers and put the clamps in place over them. They have the silicone protectors that go under the worm clamps, be sure to put this in place! Use a silicon spray, or dishwater/soap mixture to lube the silicon and slide into place on the HKS pipe.

Put the pipe into position and tighten the screw clamps.

Plug in the Pressure sensor. Attach the return hose to the recirculation port of the HKS BOV.

Take the filter and place the large end on the factory 6mm vacuum line. Attach the vacuum line to the other side of the filter and run to the BOV nipple. be sure to keep a large radius to prevent pinching. I also advise the use of zip ties to secure the vacuum lines.

Does the HKS BOV void the warranty ?

Sadly anything these days voids your warranty. I'm hoping they don't come up with a which gas station you can fill at rule next :D . But having said that nice write up. For my info , this mod help you get that coveted BOV sound thats missing from our babies right ? No performance gains correct ? or am i wrong ?

Since this bov kit recirculates the air instead of venting to the atmosphere, is there any sound from them?
