If you've got the complete kit, then run a hose from the oem bov inlet location (i.e. from the section that runs to your intercooler) to smaller nipple on the lightbulb-looking piece of aluminum. In the easiest install (not ideal, but the bov will function) you'll have to cap off the oem nipple for the oem bov output/recirculation hose. If you want a better install (to prevent stalling because of the oem maf), it'll be a bit more complex: you'll have to run a hose from the output/recirculation side of your GReddy bov back to that oem nipple instead of capping it off.

A bit more info on the oem bov/'Air Bypass Valve' can be found here:

...this diagram shows which side is the input and which side is the output/recirculation. More info here as well:

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
