made my own bov setup

so after having the hks in stock location...i realized that sound just wasnt for me...even my girlfriend said if my car was yellow we could call it tweety bird. i love the way my greddy rs bov sound and the rfl.

i had a bunch of alum pipes and clamps and couplers left over from motors and swaps ive done for people.
i cant imagine spending almost 300-400 bucks on just that peice.

i had two flages to choose from since i have both bov that i could use. i ended up using the rfl because it cant sound anymore ricey than hks. and i like being ricey.


i started with this pipe.


then cut it down to size and fit it up to make sure it fit great.


i then used my drill to make a hole with this tool.


i then just used this to clean up and make it smooth hole


i got a buddy to weld the alum flange for me for 25 bucks....heres the complete set up


now i did run into some trouble. i hooked this bov the same way your suppose to do the hks. well when i did that it could hear compressor surge and not opening all the way and wasnt that loud....which is was like a bomb going off in my 240.

i then just ran the bov straight to where you are suppose to put the boost gauge set up. now it sounded correct and didnt shutter and blew off no problem. i just capped off the bov solinoid and T the stock bov in the line line coming off the compressor housing off the turbo.


so far after driving around no cell. now well see because usally it takes a min for this cell to go. but i will keep you updated on what happens. ive read somebody did it this way before and still hasent thrown a cell but its just trial and error.

NOW! keep in mind i have put no money into this set up except the 25 bucks to get the flange welded because i already had the bov! sweet deal i think.
