ya my afm is at the beginning before turbo but it idles soo smooth and runs awsome. all my ic piping is hand made by me and pressure tested to 50 psi and no leaks and i use hi temp silicon hose and all t-bolt clamps so no leaks here at all.

ok,to clerify. for my part..i did some reasearch and...
 an AFM(air FUEL meter) has the flapper door inside with the gears, and i have the MAF(mass air flow )meter with the wire resistor that will ONLY work before the turbo? ok, so, if this is true?, then the stock BOV vented after the MAF sensor into the accorian hose before the turbo from the factory?..correct? |

yep... it vents back to the intake
most ppl just tighten up the ssq so that it doesn't cause excessive richness on shifts.... our afm is a karman vortex afm

I'va also found that some people buy an aftermarket BOV, then hook it up
with a "recirculation" kit. This usually only involves one hose and some clamps, effectively making the BOV operate like a BV while still retaining some of "whoooosh" we all love. Using a metal pipe rather than a hose makes this effect louder as the rubber absorbs some of the sound. Anyways, I'll post some sound bytes of my Greddy Type S hooked up with/without recirculation kit when I get it. Might be awhile...  Cheers!, -=Littlestan=-
