its on the far right side of your manifold - what engine is this? It will be a bigge rhose, like the PCV hose for your oil puker.

In fact, just ignore what I said. Let me go see if I can find some info on your BOV. But it sounds like its not getting enough power for what its designed to do.

Are you absolutely sure that you've set it as loose as it can get?

i positive i set it as loose as it can go. I have a 98 prelude. H22 motor. I hope i can get this BOV to work. Thats the best thing about a turbo. Except the HP and Torqe gains

use a bigger vaccum line and reduce any amount of curves in the line.

If it slides easily with your fingers then its not a problem with the valve moving something's wrong with your vacuum pulling it around.

He already told you where the vaccuum line for that is.

You need a helms manual.
