    Urgent help, what is this behind my battery? (Trying to fit FMIC)

    Nissan s14a UK spec, 1999.
    I’m trying to fit an FMIC but wondering if I need this thingy behind the battery? Or what actually is it?

    Ah right. Do I need it? Or can I just remove and bung the pipes?

    You can bung it, google pigeon mod and you’ll see how. It stops the gassed being released from the turbo though so some people don’t like doing it in case they ruin the turbo

    Not a bov... It's a recirculation valve. Bov vents to atmosphere Just remove all of the piping to it, and simply the complete set up. Makes a funny "pigeon" noise too
