I fitted the New TS EM BOV (This is the electro-mechanical unit that is a direct replacement for the OEM unit and is plug and play). I just realized this thread started a long time ago and was originally referencing the old Mechanical Vacuum operated BOV. (Not sure why anyone would want to fit that now that there is an EM unit available, if that's what you are wanting to do). If you get the new unit it just works. HTH

Do you have a good link for it? I was looking at the TS BOV on Stage3Motorsports and folks are complaining about the vacuum line

Disregard. I found it. I was looking at info from the older mechanical one. I appreciate it.

I just installed the ts bov. It was a breeze ! I do hear a little noise from the rubber line, but not bad at all. And I only hear it when the hood is open. All together a very fun mod to add. Not sure if anyone mentioned but the wire clamp is no longer with this kit. They give you a adapter to plug in. Very easy , and no codes . Great product !

What year is your truck? I ordered this BOV (in the way as I type this) but read that the pigtail wire adapter does not plug in without using a dremel to slightly modify it. Did you notice anything regarding that?

I heard the same thing that’s why I’m holding off a month or so to hopefully get the old stock with the wrong pig tail plug used up.

I have a 2020. I’m guessing turbo smart got smarter , lol. It truly was easy. I watched the video that stage 3 had on its site . The wire connector was the easiest part about it . Just a plug and play .

Oh and by the way, use a cordless drill with socket or impact to get the skid plate off. It was not hard but that took a few minutes with a ratchet .

I'm Cobb Stage II with CVF IC and this was the one mod i was on the fence about. After installing it yesterday i can say i should have installed it awhile ago. Even though i only have a little over 2k miles on the truck, the truck feels way more responsive after this install. Almost feels like the stock one was leaking boost.
