its best to have both rear ports to vacuum signal and the side port c connected right it the compressor if you have a hole there, otherwise make one.

I finally got my Synapse bov installed. This things kicks major ___. ____es all over the tnetics raptor bov, which by the way really sucks. In a way I kind of miss the loud annoying sound of the raptor, only because this thing is so quiet. It sounds like an STi's bov. Either way, its a great product so far.

Yeah, I lost one of my screws too. Anyone know what size they are so I can buy a replacement of some sort?

go buy a 10-32 tap and two 10-32 set screws from a hardware store (ace hardware or something similar) and then tap the holes larger to get a better grip on the unit. make sure to add in some locktite, blue works fine.
