Remove stock bov

I run no valve on my car and really I get sweet feck all in the line of flutter or chirping, or whatever it is I'm supposed to be getting on lift-off from full boost.

 

I do run a stock airbox albeit with a TRD panel filter so there is a possibility that a 'fancy' intake might pronounce the noise a bit more.

 

Here is a clip of my car with a go-pro mounted within about 12" of the stock airbox intake as you can hear there is little in the line of bangs & whistles.

 

 

Another one from inside the car and even when the boost control pipe fails, due to the heat of the day, and the stock twins start producing 2 bar of pressure there is still little in the line of noise to declare the increased pressure drop on gear changes.

if i am gonna remove the stock bov, can i then just remove it, and place a hose from the one end to the other, and block the vacumline that goes to the bov with a closed hose???

 

No you won't make any boost pressure if you remove the BOV and connect with a pipe. You need to remove the pipes and BOV, block off each end with a blanking cap and block the vacuum line.
