Has anyone any Idea why someone would do this? also should I get it back to the stock setup?
I take it the valve will be ridiculously over priced, are there any alternatives?

Stock BOV
Right since getting my engine my bov has had the lower chamber vacuum line blocked off and no one way valve so the only vacuum line is the main one for the top chamber.

The stock BOV is the best valve you can get

Re: Stock BOV
Not sure why someone would block it off mate but when I put the standard BOV back on mine I left out the one way valve on purpose and it seems to run just as well (if not slightly better).
The valvs are£30 ish from MrT so personally I wouldnt bother.
I would get the bottom pipe back on tho just because its supposed to be there
