sup guys, i need help taking my hks ss bov off a welded pipe.. i just got it and need to get a flange for it to bolt down onto my own pipe. i heard that i'm gonna need some sort of a c clamp or something.. if any of you guys can help me out hit me ups.. i'm in fremont/bay area!

 

if youre not gonna use that pipe anymore use a hacksaw.

 

hacksaw? you mean just saw it off around the round bottom of the bov? hrmm any other suggestions? i noticed there's 2 holes on the left side of the round part where its welded.. is there a key to open it?

 

are you just trying to take the bov of the flange. You will need a 90 degree c-clip pliar. spread them apart and then pull it should come right off

 

ok, know anywhere i can get that c clip? hrmm....

 

I use the snap on unit it. you can get one from sears however

let me post a pic right quick they csot abotu 12.99 and up make sure you get oen that is 90 degree it makes life easier

 

thanks!

 

my friends and I used those pliars that go out and slant down. It was a biatch trying to my hks blow off valve in . Probably been faster if i had the real tool

 

yep, well i went to kragen and bought a cheap o ring snapper tool w/ the 90 degree hooks and it was a bitch to take off.. actually it didn't even come off.. kinda messed up the tool too. so i returned the cheap *** tool.. maybe will stop by sears and get a craftsmen set. just still hopeful right now i guess...

 

try taking it off with two screwdrivers if you think its hard (its really hard that way!)

no joke thats the days before known knew how to do anything.

 

ok guys, heres the deal. my bov pipe used a bolt on pattern which i had a greddy type r bov bolted on it... now i got a hks ss bov... does anyone know where i can get the bolt on settup instead of the metal/aluminum flange to weld it? hit me ups!

 

you have to weld a new flange. the hkssqv flange is way off the typeS/R flange which is threaded.

 

ok i guess i'll have to re-weld and cut the existing bolt on part from the type s/r off of my pipe then huh?

 

i thought there was some sort of a flange where you clip the bov onto, then bolt that onto the pipe which is already setup for bolt on? maybe i'm wrong...

 

turbo XS maks something like that for there bovs but not other companies units.

 

ok i guess i'm lookin for a flange now then. anyone got one? aluminum!

 

I got an aluminum flange I can sell because I need a steel flange. If you have a steel flange I will trade you straight up or I can sell it for 20 shipped. Let me know.

 

i got both flagnes steel and al let me knwo

 

hrmm $20 shipped for the aluminum flange, sounds good. ok since my car is in the shop, i will notify them to see how much they can get a flange for, if it's more than 20 bucks then i'll buy it from you... i'll get back to you on here.. thanks!

 

ok cool , just let me know.

i wanna know the same thing. can u weld a hks flange onto that thingy? and bolt it to the greddy?

 

for reals man! seems like peepl keep telling me to just get an aluminum flange and weld it onto my pipe, but by doing that i'd have to cut my existing bolt on flange thats on the pipe off. that'd suk!!! hrmm any ideas fellas?

 

oh yeah, that bolt on flange on ebay.. we can put the hks ss bov on it rite? i mean it'll clip right into the ring right?
