Broken BOV

I would just replace the BOV. It is there to protect the turbo from compressor surge...

Well it is that small hose that makes the BOV work.. I am sure you can still drive the car but i would not "boost it" until you fix it.
I have an extra stock BPV if you want it. $10 shipped.. let me know.. |

let me get this right, the bov is still ok, its the stem where the bov releives and conects to the accordeon hose trhough a hose is broken? or is the stem where the bov gets its pressure signal from the intake is broken?
