Post a pic up

I made mine work off the HKS intake pipe (already has the port for a BOV return but) with 2 90degree rubber hoses and a straight bit of Aluminium pipe. My BOV has a custom fitting to allow it to be plumback

Mine has a Front facing intake manifold so thats why its plumbed back the way it is, Might not be much help but I'll put a photo up anyway:

Ok I don't have the stock one and I have custom piping and pod will the stock one still hook up?

If that's the case, show pics or at least tell us what BOV etc so we can tell you what to do, yes it's possible to plumb it back into your piping...

Ok well I don't have any pics but its just a blitz BOV thinks its called a supersound not 100% sure but it's been put in the pipe work just after the throttle body and I have a k and n Pod filter hope this helps :)

Ohhh they are the ones that look like the LOL meme guy :P

That makes life harder as I don't know if you can get a plumb back pipe for it, it kinda defeats the purpose of having it too....

Maybe revert to stock or another style

On any normal day i would be against the cops for defects, but a BOV isn't exactly a performance upgrade and they do sh*t me at times.... But that's just my opinion....

You don't have the time to mess around, are you running stock turbo etc? Can u borrow std gear to

Use? (I would honestly look into a permanent fix as its just gunna happen again and if it does they may pick on you for other stuff for wasting their time)....

Still post a pic if u can

I run a high mount turbo and the BOV is plumbed back into the intake, 100% plumbed back... See if you can do the same, but once again we need to see it to be able to tell you...

Is your bov mounted on a round fitting with a circlip or the normal 2 bolt type flange? If you have the 2 bolt flange you can buy a (or my) GTR bov which will look stock (well it is stock) but be a bit more robust than an RB25DET one. You still need to find a place to plumb the return in though - shouldn't cost too much to get a piece welded on your intake.

No it's all custom piping intake pipe turbo piping and piping from pod to turbo

post a photo of your engine bay, so we can see your custom piping.

If you are still running the stock crossover piping and its just your intake and hot pipe thats changed, you will just need to get a bung welded onto the intake pipe, a stock bov and a return pipe.

I have a stock rb25det bov and a gtr one in the shed, but obviously we need to see your setup so we can give you advice.

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
