what kind of silicone boot? where did it come from? that doesnt look like it will work at all.. just save up and get some pipe off ebay. or like sleeper said use pvc pipe but your going to need to make a grove near the ends for the couplers to kinda sink into when you clamp it to prevent leaks under boost.

Wow awsome find on that motor/tranny.  What did you do with your old one?  Was your TPS and IAC still working?

do not put on a BOV unless your running a blow through VAM and the BOV has to be BEFORE the VAM

Yes, but if you use it on these cars the go mad rich on deacceleration and stumble or die. Your fuel mileage also goes down the tubes...

non, I'm just right to the wastegate and it holds 8 PSI steady.

I had a bleeder valve and got 15 PSI but I kept blowing valve cover seals...

Let me put it this way, at only 8 PSI I've raced a bretta GT 5 speed, sunbird turbo (built up a little), and a few civics (new 06+) and beat them all.... at 15 PSI it was like a kick in the ass when it hit.

I'l tell you this right now, buy a boost valve, because when I went to 8 PSI it seemed slow to me
