He Guys,
I've finally installed my Synapse BOV in my EVO IX. Below are some pictures that I took to explain the process.
1 - Since I'm running the ETS Intake Pipe Kit, I went to Autozone and brought a Heater hose (I got it for the angles). If you look at the pic below you can see what angle I used to fit the recirculating end of the BOV.
2 - This set-up is very simple and straight forward, I split the Vacuum Boost source to Ports A & B of the Synapse BOV. You can either use the T-Shape splitter or the V shape. In my opinion, I would go with the V-shape as I did below.
3 - The Boost Only Source, I T'ed it from the MBC to the Turbo Compressor, and you'll all done.
4 - For ETS users that have the UICP and Intake Pipe kit, the fitment of the BOV will be close to the UICP, you can try to wiggle it in a way so that BOV isn't that close to the pipe but I end up putting a one sided mesh tape in between the BOV and UICP just in case there's any rubbing.
NOTE: I placed the one-sided mesh tape on the UICP.
I hope this helps a bit, I'm not a install expert but I do try.

also you do not need to run both ports to a Y. you can test out using just one port at a time while leaving the second port open. There is no 1 best way for this valve people are having success with all different ways of using it..push or pull. both lines or just one.

Ok, I just installed my Synapse BOV EXACTLY like this 2006EvoIXMR fellow did, and I am getting really bad part throttle surge around 4-5k rpm. WTF did I do wrong?
-Injen UICP and Intake
-A & B ports are together in a Y connector running to the stock BPV vacuum line
- C port is tee'd into the WGA/MBC line
Should I try only running either port A or port B?
Should I flip the orientation of the BOV and leave the lines as they are? (So the adjustment screw end is facing up)
Any other ideas? I am freakin lost here. It seems like there are 10,000 ways to hook these up and the differing opinions has my head spinning. O_o

Hey Goodhart,
There are a few options with this BOV. Teeing to both A and B triggers a slow release creating flutter. Try running only B, it helps with releasing air faster, and finally if that doesn't work try only A which is the quickest release option. I hope that helps.

Hahaha...a good way to bump a year old thread Anyways, GoodHart has already sold his Evo, but what you said is good and exactly how I installed mine. It works like a charm and all of my fluttering from my crushed IX BOV before are now gone!!
Synapse is great
