finally!!!
 
with the help of a couple of friends and silver for the mf we finally figured out why my ic piping kept popping off, i had my mbc tee'd off from the bov, so i drilled a hole in the jpipe and put in a threaded nipple and connected it there and that solved the problem, i took the car for a test and man i started shaking cuz i was so happy but you wouldve too if you had the trouble i had, so everybody out there when you hook up ur mbc DONT TEE IT OFF WITH THE BOV!!!!

Ahhh, the feeling of boost! Glad that was it man. That MBC must have a hell of a relief hole to lose enough vacuum pressure to keep the BOV from opening. Don't forget to seal that nipple too. JB weld it or have it welded on, but don't use RTV or teflon tape. There's a lot of pressure there and I would be paranoid that something will get sucked up, lol. Do a boost leak check there first. If it's not leaking...leave it, lol.

yeahi almost teed the bov to my external wastegate, and i just happened to read in a few spots(including the instructions) that doing that is a no-no. Bov needs its very own vacuum source
