Went vta today but could not get back hose clamp off to take off hose from Bov so I left it on and disconnected from the return and put stopper on
That's what I did. Hoping my mechanic will have something to get the back hose off the BOV.

Just take the turbo pipe off, it's quick and easy. I used the clamps off the hose to secure the caps.

Sent from my mobile, I think.

Will this negatively affect reliability of the turbos?

The only reason they don't VTA from the factory, is to keep the EPA basterds happy. So if you VTA you must hug a tree once a week to make up for it.

Started this mod today and have a few questions.  What do you do with the hose that you disconnect?  Does it just hang there?  Do you remove it completely?  Will this suck elements into your engine?  Do you need to install an air filter?

Not sure what you mean....  I understand where to cap.  I'm wondering about the other side.  Did you leave the hose?  Remove it?  Do you need a breather or filter to keep elements from getting into the engine?

It releases air, not intakes air. Its pressure released, so i am not sure how it would intake any dirty air

I believe the cap is for the intake side, Please correct me if i am wrong. and the blow off valve just release the pressure into the air.

Remove the hose and cap off the recirculation area the side of the tube not connected to the blow off valve. That is the area that sucks the blow off valve does not suck elements in but rather releases it appears that's my understanding

There's no adverse affects in doing this? I seem to remember from my Subaru days that those cars don't like getting away from the recirc BOV's...messes with how the car runs.
