HKS BOV flange position on ETS UICP ???????

I've researched with no luck. I ordered ETS IC piping w/ stock battery setup. They welded the HKS BOV flange on the pipe (as requested) but it is on the top front of the upper piece of the UICP. It almost touches the hood when closed and I would have to find and fabricate a recirc hose to go the intake pipe. Does anyone have the battery routed ETS UICP with HKS BOV flange welded on? If so, where did they mount it? How did you run recirc? Did you decide to use the HKS engine idle stability and VTA instead? I'll call ETS tomorrow when they open to see what they have to say but it doesn't seem right where they welded the flange. The upper coolant hose is in the way when trying to route a recirc and the BOV its too close to the hood for my liking. Any info is appreciated.

WOW! 16 views so far and no response. I figured this would happen. Hopefully more light will come about when I call ETS tomorrow.

I had a case of the dummies. I missed the obvious. It does route but the vent tube of the BOV is pretty close to the hood. I recommend finding a different recirc hose from your local automotive shop instead of using the one that comes with the HKS recirc kit to angle the BOV better for more clearance. I'll be at Auto Zone and other stores scouting for a better hose tomorrow.
