HKS SSQV < POO

Dont get one of those simmo, they sound like a high pitched fart...

But if you must...

you will need to get a flange welded onto your intercooler piping and get the BOV attached there. you will need to get the stock BOV hole welded over on the intercooler piping and the hole in the intake piping plugged.

So your up for $100 in labour prolly unless your handy with an aluminum welder...

Or you can get an adapter made for the standard spot with a 90 degree bend in it. That what I had on my old car - so you can use the stock spot and change back easy if you have to

Hey champ,

Have a look - the light blue thing is the part I'm talking about. It worked great, and saved welding. Got a base plate cut from the old BOV at a laser cutting place, then got an elbow and the BOV adapter welded on.

Total cost - $50.

leave the stock one on, then you wont get issues with stalling and back firing.

Swing by gas tune - they did mine. SSQV on my 32GTST. It cost me $50 (mates rates). At least get a price. Pro job

That and I bet you it does a better job than the aftermarket one

until you get to ~12psi and it starts leaking...

until you get to ~12psi and it starts leaking...

The only reason I upgraded - leaking.
