blow off valve change up
i've been runnin with this apexi b.o.v for awhile now and am looking to get a new one that isn't well...so boring. i mean it functions fine and doesn't leak boost but i wanna have a pitch to the bov. so i was wondering since i had a couple friends that had a greddy type s and an hks one if i could swap out the bov on mine for that....
like would it be a bolt on affair or would i need some major modification to the piping for it to work.
here's a pic of the flange http://www.wabe.net/silum/images/apex_turbo26.jpg

ive seen adapter pipes b4. xs engerneering has some i think. check it out. not sure what flange it adapts from though. worst comes to worst u can cut your pipe and add in a welded one.

Re: blow off valve change up (leadtrum)
doubt it'll fit...just have to buy it and see. just...you can have a muffler shop weld it...I've heard of some guys using JB weld...not too sure if that'll hold though...any other thoughts?

I don't trust JB Weld on anything...Might as well weld on a new flange. Thats what I did. I have a Blitz DD now, but am going to switch to an Turbo XS RFL
