Greddy Intercooler pipe problem

[dustyk]

I just got a Greddy FMIC for my car and I noticed that the intercooler piping on the hot side has a pipe sticking out of it for the stock BOV. Since I dont have the stock BOV or anything else, what should I use to plug this part of the pipe?

i have the same problem, I am just going to cut off the extra tube and have my friend weld a piece of metal over the hole. Problem solved, then I am just going to buy a hot pipe for mr HKS BOV, i think that is the easiest way and cleanest way. If you know someone that can weld, its great. Or just pay a little money to have it done, it shouldnt be that much.

you mean you got no BOV AT ALL????????

Go to your local advanced auto parts store and get a part made for plugging vaccum lines. It will be a rubber bushing with a large washer and nut on top. get the one that is slightly to large to fit the whole on the piping and put it on a grinder and grind it till it just fits inside tightly. Then tighten the nut down and vaulaaa!!! Perfect Plug!!!

They are called Freeze Plugs!

What this guy said. Rubber freeze plugs. I ran around on that until I eventually got the factory recirculation parts.
