hey guys...i was sent a bad hks ssq bov yesterday...the bov didnt come with the stem that connects the the vacumm line...i called hks and asked if this place was replaceable and they said they cant sell me an extra stem...i even went to kragen and tried to custom make one...i was hoping that someone here on i-club and NOT NASIOC could help me....heres my questions...

where can i find that stem piece?

if i were to find a piece similar..could i weld it to that hole and make it work?

does that stem produce the bov to make sounds with the vacumm tube intact?
(the bov doesnt even make sounds without the stem in)

how would i know if the diaphram is broken






here is a picture of the bov installed on my car WITHOUT THE STEM PIECE (the stem didnt come with the package)



here is the IMPROVISED version of what kragen suggested me to do





when i attached the modified piece to the bov i didnt hear any "sucking" air sound a vacumm would make so i assumed nothing was leaking...however reved the motor the bov didnt even blow off any air....my idle is fine also....i dont know whats wrong....please somebody help
