the other one? you mean the other nipple on the BOV? mine only has one.....
only one should have to be attached to a vacuum/boost signal.

jon, i am really planning in boosting my K8 ...
Imagine this ... i order the Ebay hotpipes
I get some aftermarket Bov and a wastegate
For just making a 3 or 4 psi ... do i really need to get the injectors ?

well, for 3-4 psi, not really...but why only 3-4 psi??? mine takes 12 psi no problem.
btw, you will need some sort of fuel management for sure also.

But you have a worked project ... i am trying to understand if i can get this done in my Everyday car

I need this to get to work ...
I guess 3 or 4 psi wouldn't kill the project right away
isnt the fuel management only to replace the ECU ?
If i can get my ECU re-chipped to manage the turbo ... will it still run bad or not at all ?

our cars don't have a sensor to read how much boost is being created, so remapping the ecu would be useless.
