Default BOV Filter

Has any one put a Filter on their BOV/bypass? I have the C6 vortech kit and im sick of cleaning the engine every time i pull into a dusty parking spot.

My procharger kit came with a K & N type filter that attaches to the blow off valve.

humm..where is the BOV on the procharger? The concern with the vortech is if there is room to get a filter in there.

It sits behind the radiator fan and in front of the engine block.

That is the same location, so it should not be a problem. I called Vortechs Tech guys and they said they have filters but they cant send out side of the US and i have to get it through a local vortech dealer. Called my tuner he said he will bring some in.

with the filter on the procharger BOV, Do you notice any dust?

Well, I haven't driven mine enough to tell. I think my BOV is leaking anyway. Probably going to have to replace it.
