Mount it either on your IC endtank or on a charge pipe after IC. Use a vacuum line off the intake manifold for boost signal.

i read the big diy post, it was very helpful,
as far as i can make out without the bov attachment which stops leak at idel its not realy worth having a bov unless your running over 6psi? am i right?
ill only be running 6psi on the begi s kit as ill be using the begi fmu untill i manage to get an MS.
The BOV i have is a one off ebay:
is it worth fitting it? shall i buy the attachment recomended to vent to atmosphere without upgraded ecu or shall i fit it as it is?

Looking back now on how many times i've taken the bov off to adjust it i would recommend recirculating it also. I'll take some pics but as far as driveability mine runs flawless vta, perfect idle, good afr's, and cool sound. it just takes time, patience, and several times taking it off to adjust the spring.
You can still hear the sound if you recirculate it.

Can you please tell me how to recirculate it, as i cant seem to find instructions on how to fit it?

well the easiest way to recirculate the bov that you have is to replace the red bell with some type of pipe that will thread into it. Then run some heater hose form autozone from the bov to a spot on the intake in between the turbo and your maf. You will have to drill the spot out and weld another small tube up to the hole. Then attach the hose between the two.
If you recirculate don't use the extra washers, just keep it as it came.

The way you install your bov can easily be searched, there are alot of people who have pics for any application.
A general rule of installation:
BOV mounts after intercooler(either on it or on pipe after)
metal tube extending from back of bov is the signal line(attach it to a spot on the intake manifold using a small line)
bov can be vta or recirc (just connect the output source of the bov to a spot in between the turbo and maf sensor if you recirc)
(You may need to drill a hole into the intake pipe between the turbo and maf in order to weld a small pipe to recirc the bov)
