The fitting on the lower hotpipe on the Greddy VSPL intercooler kit for the stock bov...what did you guys do to bypass that welded-on fitting? Pics would help a lot.

On mine, and my buddy's we used like a radiator hose and then connected the radiator hose to a BOV (aftermarket). Just get a flange for that bov and then connet the radiator hose to that.
