Actually just got back from some pulls, Everything is fine now. This setup worked for me aswell. No more bucking... By the way just curious port A which is vented did you ever try just plugging it?

By the way I did a 5th gear run on a good straight away just to test it out... and when I checked the boost gauge it was at 29 pounds!! im tuned for 27 psi. Called up my tuner and all we did was lower the boost on my EBC. Everything seems fine now. Ill post something if something comes up.

can someone post a video of this happening just to clarify? The only thing with mine is that sometimes under partial throttle, it flutters. It doesn't sound like surge when comparing it to other videos. And it only does it under very light throttle.... sometimes. So I'm pretty convinced it's just fluttering and there's no surge which could possibly be what others are hearing.

Because they don't have it set correctly - you have to play with ports A/B (or a combo of A+B) to see what works on your setup.

Also, regardless of what anyone says, I wouldn't run ANY Tee's when using the bov. Run the shortest, straightest line directly to your intake manifold and connect it to the top port of your choice on the Synapse. If your Synapse has a Port C send it in to be removed.

just out of curiousity, would it matter if you turn the bov around as to swap the ports that connect to the intake and the licp with each other? either way the air enters and has to make a 90 degree turn correct?

I left it vented as the video I watched from sypnapse said to leave it venting.

When people say "send it in to have port C removed," why can't it just be plugged? Also, do they sell them with port C already removed?

The port C delete option requires internal modification and the dis assembly of the complete unit. This is why we recommend the unit be sent back to us to perform the delete. If it is merely plugged your BOV will not function properly.
