Tips on installing HKS SSQV BOV
 

I have the HKS SSQ with the flange welded to my UIC piping. I put the gasket in the flange and test fit the BOV but it seems to not be a tight enough fit. Will the metal clip make it fit snug?

yes the metal clips is what hold the BOV in the flange and make it leak proof...
use a special pliers..I forgot what it called....I'll find out in a few....otherwise, good luck, you'll never get the BOV in the flange..

with this pliers, it took me 5 minutes and I have done 2 so far...

you need a set of C clamp pliers, make sure you get the right size, and have some patience. It's a very secure design

it took me a half hour to install that damn thing. I used 2 flathead screwdrivers http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsmilep.gif Dont ask me how, just got creative. Make sure to tape the side of the bov so you dont scratch it up in the process. http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emthup.gif

You can also take the outer cover off of the BOV, its every other screw on the front . It allows for alot more room to work.
