You can splice into the line between the intake manifold and bov, then route that to the mbc. Thats what I did. Some people prefer to drill and install a nipple on the licp, so thats an option as well.

I am curious as to why they didnt design one into their setup? Does Buschur have something against nipples?
I didnt want to deal with tapping one in so thats why I didnt get their licp kit. Has anybody had issues with using a different source instead of the licp for their boost controller?

That sucks. I do like the way ETS gives you really nice t-bolt clamps, another reason I went with their setup.
I will say that you should have done a boost leak test before going on a beat run with it. Always do a boost leak test when messing around with evo intercooler piping, these things like to leak. If you do a lot of heavy boosting around town, you should boost leak test your vehicle that much more often.
Thats whats nice about stainless steel piping setup, you can clamp the hell out of it much safer than aluminum.

One can only guess why they didn't, and my guess is to keep production costs as low as possible.
When I first installed a MBC in my Evo, I tapped the BOV line and capped the nipple on the outlet. I never had a problem and that's the way I had it on my DSM too.

I drilled a hole in my BR LICP and then welded a bung on and tightly threaded in a brass nipple fitting....Also used high temp thread sealant on it...Never leaked during a boost leak test. For BOVs like the Tial, they are supposed to have their own vacuum source coming straight from the intake manifold with no Ts in it, say for a MBC.
