Hi, has anyone done this yet? I am having problems dealing with different connector and hose diameters. Any suggestions will be welcome!

OMG, those things are crap. I worked at a porsche dealership and those plastic pieces o poo poo were always leaking and cracking. Its great, you can poke your finger in there and push down plastic diaphragm. I have an sr recirc valve if you want it. Just pat for shipping and its yours.

thanks sr240mike! I eventually got a turbo XS recirc BOV - after the Porsche BOV I ordered arrived.

UPDATE: I got the Turbo XS RBV-25 recirc. bov installed. I did not put on the recirc hose, but at idle it leaks. (I can tell by putting my hand over the outlet port). So I did try the Porsche bov, and it is running fine on my SR. If I wanted something flashy, or if I wanted to boost over 14psi, I will make the $135 investment for a TurboXS. But until then, the $100 I save will go toward a boost controller.
