Hey mate. your standard bov should only have the 2 pipes coming off it, a small one facing towards the inlet plenum and a large one pointing to the passenger side of the car. The small goes to the rear of the plenum and the other connects to the return pipe directly in front of it. If it ain't obvious (and if he got defected) he has probably removed the return pipe, so you'll need that too. If the one heading to the inlet plenum isn't obvious then is it an aftermarket plenum as well? I hope these photos help.

Ok, is has a manual boost controller witch is plumbed into the plenum where the BOV pipe should be, the larger return has just been pluged up. am i able to put a 3 way valve on the smaller pipe and plum the BOV into it?

Cheers

I dunno. I would remove the boost controller and get a new piece of hose, return the standard BOV to factory (as in the pics) for the boys in blue. Then if you want the boost controller put it in the correct place. Try this thread: Installing a manual boost controller for beginners

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
