this is my hot pipe setup and the bov was hacked inorder for a hose to fit on it but couldnt find a hose to exactly fit. So i got a metal adapter piece and use electrical tape to hold it on and the use the fitting end and attached a hose that goes back into my intake. Any help rrobe99999?

thanks.
That looks similar to my setup, but the kinked "bends" are killing your airflow, and probably causing surge. It looks like too much of the filter was cut off of your adaptor. The neck of the adaptor is tapered and then gets big at the filter. It looks like you only have the tapered part, so when you try to connect a hose, it slips off. You should redo your adaptor so that a hose will fit good. Try to find a barbed plastic fitting that you can slide over your adaptor and glue it on. I tried using a 90 degree barbed fitting at first, but it was too restrictive. I also had a short hose that was too restrictive. I finally settled on the 2' hose with the large 90 bend from my FMIC kit on my 3rd attempt. I noticed that the stock recirc setup was quite long, and decided that this would be the way to go to prevent surge. Your hose looks like its a good diameter, but needs to be longer so you can route it W/O kinks.
