So i'm finishing off my catch can set up as below i fitted the an12 fitting to the air intake before turbo as in the picture, but have since looked at it a bit more, and am questioning what ive done, i have a return style BOV in between the turbo and the catch can filtered air intake, will this effect the setup?
has any 1 else done this setup with a return BOV before?






you can see the return from the bov is close to to the turbo, and the an12 fitting welded about 1 foot from that.

Why are you running recirculation BOV? Plan on running a MAF?

mud water etc, just minimize the chance of contaminates getting into the engine, if it does open at idle for any reason.

Well the only thing I can think of is changing the catch can. Contact Mightymouse on here and pick up one of his cans. The can has a check valve on the vented filter. Here's how to hook it up - Run a line from each valve cover to the two bottom ports on the catch can. Run the top port on the catch can to the intake. Cap the TB and the front port on the passenger side valve cover. The mightymouse can works great. I used it with my blower for about 10k and I'm still using it n/a while I finish my turbo build. The only problem might be the filter on top of the can, but it is covered in metal. Picture of it in this thread.

you wont have a problem. factory turbo cars have similar plumbing(minus catch cans). its just going to recirculate back to the turbo or through the air filter, its not going to pressurize the catch tank.
