I've done this as well in the past few weeks. Capped them with the black chair leg caps...$2 at Lowes. Pulled the hose completely from the front one...for the back one, just pulled the intake side since the BOV side is hard to reach, and left the hose there.

I could hear it before with the Typhoon intake, but it's even more noticeable now, especially at lighter throttle. It's slightly louder, and maybe a little more raspy/higher pitched.

With my intake system my VTA is pretty noticeable to the point where other drivers notice, the tune made it much more effortless to replicate at my disposal.
Same here... Did mine due to hotpipes. Used to go pfffft.... Now goes PFFFFT!

Just finished my BOV to VTA last night. Took about 45min due to lack of the right tool to get the hose off the back BOV. BUT, with much fiddling, swearing, and 1 cut knuckle.... my car goes PPPPFFFFFFTTTTTTTT!!!!!! just waiting to see how bad my gas mileage is because every time it goes, i giggle and smile like a 2 year old....

The pita part is putting back that rear hose,next time just remove one section and cap off the port,easier that way if you need to put it back down the road for dealer service,good luck.

While anything could happen... I had a valve cover gasket leak and had the dealer replace it with my hotpipes in place.... No hose to reconnect they had to R&R the charge system to do it.  The dealer got it back perfectly and called it "air in - air out" change with no problem.... Again, anything could happen

Quick question going along with the VTA mod. This is my first turbo vehicle i've owned. Should I be concerned with any oil in the pipe where the BOVs are?

It depends on how much. There will be some, just because of the nature of the pcv system. The hose on the front valve cover recirculates oil vapors  back into the intake system.

Best thing I've found to handle this stock pesky squeeze clamps is a good set of vice grips. Adjust them right, squeeze them on the clamps, then you can pull the hose off without having to hold the clamp.

Vice grips can be real lifesavers working around cars :thumb:

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
