i would leave it in there, as long as its working, to keep the engine from stalling due to Venting to atmosphere, while still being MAF

well couldn't he just recirculate the SSQV? that'd fix both problems, except one of the holes i'm guessing

The higher psi you go the more likely the stock BOV is leaking. Id eliminate it. I like to eliminate as many potential problems as possible when it comes to the intake tract.

If it's completely stock I'd stick with the stock BOV, if you delete it and vent the HKS, you're going to have some problems. Recirculating the HKS will work fine if that's what you want to run, a bit of a different sound though.

i recirculated my hks to the turbo inlet although it was a pain to try and find the right fitting for the hks recirculation fitting... i never raised stock boost so i just threw the stocker on with new hoses (reason i got the hks in the first place was my stock hoses cracked :))
