Godspeed/Ebay FMIC, question about BOV and BAC
For those of you out there that have this FMIC setup, how does the BOV and BAC hook up? From the pictures on ebay it appears that I will need to weld in a flange for the BOV. Is the piping aluminum or coated steel? Also, I didn't see a port to connect to the BAC valve. Did you guys weld in a small section of pipe, or just remove the BAC completely. I have the block off plate and I am aware that my idle may suck if I choose to do so.

He does. Dont bother with recirc. Just vent. Pffffffft turbo lag...... This is a rotory. Not some piece of **** vw or dsm.
The kits are cast aluminum but you can get steel weld on flanges.
For the 5/8's barb (and it is 5/8") you could get a lenth of tubing and just weld it on wherever. I threw my bac valve in a box of parts and will not be using it..... Lumpy idle sounds cool.

Well I bought the exact same kit but I also bought the generic BOV with T flange. I am not concerned with the leaking from the coupler because if one coupler leaked they all would. I am going to try to mount mine where two pipes meet and then just cut off the end a little. Because it is aluminum I dont want to try to weld aluminum because I have done zero welding !
I will try to take some pics when I do mine. If the MODs dont kill my thread again I will have a write up so all noobs can follow. Hope I dont **** them off again

OTOH you have to remember the engine is expecting that extra air and when the BOV dumps it the motor will sputter. Not that big of a deal but some hate it.
