also.. &nbsp;the BOV is not to remove air before the Throttle body. &nbsp;It is to remove Back pressure that is created because the throttle is closed, and the turbo is still spinning (inertia) and pushing air. &nbsp;The BOV is not actually necessary either. &nbsp;It is a safety device designed to prolong the life of the turbo. &nbsp;and it makes a really cool whirring sound. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>

In order to make the bov re-circulate you have to connect tubing to the blow-off valve exhaust opening the would connect to the intake b/w the MAF, and the Turbo, where there is no pressurized air.
