I can't seem to find the by pass valve, to replace with BOV. This is the same engine as escape 1.5l right? Where do I look, or can it even be done?

I would honestly check with Boomba support before making a purchase as their website doesn't currently list a BOV for the U.S. 3 Cylinder 1.5L. The 1.5L offering for the U.S. you likely saw is for the 1.5L Four-pot motor.I can't seem to find the by pass valve, to replace with BOV. This is the same engine as escape 1.5l right?

Before I traded the Mustang I used to troll around looking at all the mods people installed. I was watching a video by a dude who had just installed a exhaust system on his EcoBoost Mustang. He was revving the engine to demonstrate the new sound. He had previously installed a blow-off valve, and the hood was open. Every time he revved the engine you could clearly hear the BOV open with a loud PSHSHSHSHSH. My wife happened to walk by when I was watching the video and stopped to look over my shoulder.Maybe it's me, the Boomba BOV makes the 1.5 sound like the air brakes on a bus.
On a hot hatch, it might be passable, on the BS, not so much.
Hmmm. I was certainly not trying to p!$$ in your Cheerios with my post. I like to mod my cars too, I was just illustrating the fact we all have to live with the consequences of those mods.Maybe it's me but alot of you seem like you lost the cool factor. Have any of you actually modded a turbo motor? If you like stock stay stock. I like bringing the best out of my cars/trucks. I'm a gear head with a 70 Chevelle, have had 2016 ss Camaro, 2008 cobalt ss turbo. I make my vehicles better. If you don't like change then stay stock, I'll be happy to blow your doors off on the highway. Mic drop......
got a link?Someone has a Bov installed on their OB. Saw a video they posted recently in the off roading threads I wonder which one they have installed.
I think the escape is a 4 cylinder maybe . The escape we have is a 2.0 .The 1.5 is a 3 cylinder. Ford also makes a1.8 but I believe it also is a 4 cylinder .I can't seem to find the by pass valve, to replace with BOV. This is the same engine as escape 1.5l right?

The hybrid aside, the current MY Escape uses the same two engines as the Bronco Sport.I think the escape is a 4 cylinder maybe . The escape we have is a 2.0 .The 1.5 is a 3 cylinder. Ford also makes a1.8 but I believe it also is a 4 cylinder .
