I have the metal piece on the hot side that was made by HKS if you are interested. You just unbolt your old metal piece, stick this in with your BOV and you are on your way. let me know. It still has the HKS sticker on it.

It would actually be easier to just pull the hot pipe off, buy the steel SSQV flange and have it welded on. Probably cost the same amount of money as well.

I have a SSQV kit for an SR, and the pipe is almost too short. That one you posted will be too short I bet.

And FYI: I vented mine for like 8 months, then finally recirculated it, and response is soooooo much better. But recirculating a SSQV kind of defeats the point. If you need a recirculating fitting, I have an extra one.

tight...how does the BOV connect to that...does it just lock in or is it more welding?

you will have to use an HKS BOV with a snap ring and o-ring to keep it from leaking. O-ring, then set the bov in, and clip it in with the snap ring. This did have the older style HKS BOV I just dont remember the model off the top of my head.

this was the BOV that was in it but I dont' think it matters what HKS BOV you use but if you are interested please find out as I have only had that one HKS BOV and am not sure if all the bases are the same size.
