There is usually a plug with the kit that you just plug into that whole... iono if worse comes to worse, duct tape it.

I think I used a rubber plug with a hose clamp.

When you get a new valve, sometimes I heard you'll get a plug if you ask, but I usually don't know what I'm talking about.

mine came with a plug that you just stuff into the tube and hoseclamp it in place.

p.s. pretty much anything that is fairly heat resistant and large enough to fit the tube should work, just make sure your plug is securely in place, you dont want it to fall into the tube when you are driving.

How were you going to do that? Just unplug the inlet hose?

use duct tape to cover the hole if you cant find anything and if your looking for something to cap it with i think you need something thats 35mm

You might want to check out GFB wrx hybrid. I just got one for my rex and it works great!! The new ones are also adjustable, and they bolt right up to the stock TMIC. Their a great price compared to all the other bov's.
