Help with BOV Flange

I was given a BOV flange for my FC that was supposedly used with a Greddy Type S BOV. Just wondering if this flange will fit any other BOVs?

Is it the flange from the car specific kit? I'm guessing it is since a universal flange would have to be welded on and generally not reused.

Sorry...yes, its the piping with the flange that comes in the Greddy Type S kit for the FC, so its a car specific piece. I was just wondering if the flange would fit other brands of BOVs, or if I'm stuck using a Greddy Type S with this?

Here is a picture of the pipe that I have...this one is for a Supra, but you get the idea:

Well, you definately aint gonna use a Turbo XS BOV with it... Looks similar to an apex-i dual chamber mount.... but i wouldn't take the chance unless i had money to burn...

However, the Greddy Type S isn't a bad Valve.

if all else fails you could make some sort of an adapter plate ... something to go between that flange, and the flange of a newer blow off valve ...

i love my greddy type s though ... it sounds great ...

Yeah, its not a huge deal obviously. I've just always heard great things about the HKS SSQV and like the sound, so I was wondering if it would fit if I bought the universal HKS SSQV to save me some cash over the FC kit. Or I could save myself some potential hassle and get the Greddy. Thanks guys.
