Default Where to T the BOV off of?
Do any of you guys have pics of where you guys T-ed the BOV off of? I brought a HKS SSQV and going to install on the STS kit. I need to know where the best place to T it off of and it would really help if you had pics!

If any of you guys have the STS w/ a BOV can you send me a pic

If you are very **** about efficiency, than the best location would be as close to the throttle body as posable.
