you need a new bov then. your car will not run right unless you are re-circulating.

Check with the company that makes that bov...they might make an attachment that will let you recirc.

It will run rich, sputter, Stall. You wont be able to run1/4-3/4 throttle or the car will sputter and buck ect ect. do a search on BOVs and this subject you will get alot of info, I have went over this a million and one times on here in the past so I now it here
