VTA is not recommended for our car. Might want to look into a recirc instead.

Just installed an Evo X BOV. It was very easy, but the little clamp from the vacuum hose jumped into the engine bay, never to be found again... >_< Everything works fine, but I still need to find a replacement. Unfortunately so far I've had no luck finding one online. Any ideas?

So I just bought a BOV. The person who removed it had cut the hose, so the clamp was still on it. I still have it sitting on my TV stand. Shoot me a PM.

Sorry for the noob question, but how do you tell the physical difference between the oem and the EVO? are part #'s different? size? I'm probably buying mine used online (nothing around where I live), and would like to know the difference between the two...

They look almost identical, but the Ralliart BPV is black and made of plastic and the Evo X one is a metal piece.

Just got mine off of eBay a week ago. Planning on installing it this spring. Will post pics, seeing the original post isn't available any more.

This will work but the vacuum hose that goes to the intake manifold will need to be extended.
