I don't know why you need 2 bov's if you are still running stock twins. Usually what people do is they take the bov (the one closes to the front of the engine out) and put the aftermarket one in. The CRV you shouldn't touch or replace with aftermarket bov because it doen't function the same way.

well i did know that but i know there is pros and cons of putting a bov on either side of the intercooler being that forced air on the hot side goes back the way of the turbos and damages them and a forced air on the cool side goes back into the intercooler dirupting flow and also goes the way of the throttle body when closed and also damages it so I thought y not keep the stock one and put the aftermarket on the other side and get the best of both worlds.

i just wanted to know if its been done before and how to hook it up.
