Replacing BOV

I'm replacing the stock by pass valve with a used HKS SSQ BOV. Mine, being used, does not have the plug for the bypass hose. Does anybody know how big of a plug I need for this hose? Or any suggestions for something I could use to plug the bypass hose?

You can plug it with anything you want. Duck tape if you're cheap, or cut out some thick plastic.

I wouldn't use duct tape. There is the risk of it being sucked in and if it has a small gap you will hear a wistle noise. Either get some sort of plastic cap to go over the hose or rig somethign up yourself. You can always order the aluminum plug from HKS but it will cost you $50
