yes it is vented it is not recirc. i did a search and found that it may be the maf is dirty shich could be caused from oil based filters. so i think ill try cleaning that out and see how it does. as for the BOV i also noticed that at idle i hear a whistle coming from the BOV and i dont think its ever done that before. ive had the BOV for bout 4-5 months and never any problems before
