Greddy Type S on FC

i have a series 4 RX-7, and i was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers on installing the Greddy Type S BOV onto my engine.

the engine is pretty much stock, still has the standard top mount etc. is the stock BOV the small black thing slightly to the left of the engine?

do u reccomend that i make up a new intercooler pipe or use the stock location?

any help would be greatly appreciated

if you dont get the adaptor your gonna have to get it welded to the pipe above the turbo. which is the stock location. i recommend getting the adaptor if you havent orderd it yet. if you do it will bolt right up.

You're fucked.

Using it in the stock location takes more custom fab work than it's worth.

Welding onto the stock cast aluminum pipe is not recommended.
