MR2 MK2 Rev 2 Turbo Missing valve attached to BOV?

[hippidy]

Hi, I've noticed a T-section pipe near the BOV, looking at pics I've noticed that it's missing what looks like a valve between one of the two pipes.

Is it a simple one-way valve? and is it actually needed?
Thanks.

Yes it is needed with the stock BOV

Thanks, which way is it supposed to flow?

VTV valve is approx £40 from toyota.

You need it for the stock bov. Its not a simple one way valve though it does limit air but lets a little through.

Thanks, £40 seems a bit steep

It is. I bought one as couldn't put a bov on as its got a AFM. Only available from Toyota too.

Peter was selling a standard one with vtv quite cheap. Prob sold by now.

£55 to be precise.

£55 to be precise.

I did manage to find it for £37 from the US. Not sure about import taxes etc. though.

+20% on total paid, plus any handling fees by RM or PF.

The £37 was just for the postage, it didn't include the price of the valve itself
