Bypass hose

Currently I am running BR's UICP with a Greddy Type S BOV that is VTA, as the previous owner had it setup like this. I bought the bypass hose that buschur sells (looks like rad hose with a 90 deg. bend) and it doesn't fit. They said to cut it and that didn't work either. Whenever I shift it draws too much attention and I have read that VTA isn't the best for an EVO.

So does anyone have this BOV and what hose are you using? I tired going to NAPA and getting some rad hose with different bends in it and hacked it up, but still no success.

I'll try to snap a pic real quick so you can see my problem.

Thanks in advance for the help!

dude Radiator Pressure Hose Works Great, Im Serious. Find Some large Hase Tha Size and Make sure its Pressure Hose and Route it. I did that On my MR2 with the Same Stupid BOV. Or you can Buy some Silicone Tubing or a samco hose or something.

try to rotate your intake pipe a little and see if that helps with fitment.

theres a hose out there somewhere that will fit....just go to your local auto parts store and try to figure out by eyeballin it what looks close. It doesnt have to line up perfectly to work.

And like somebody else suggested try rotating you intake pipe one way or the other....
