Why does it have 87 leather seats? Looks pretty clean.

chris, the guy who i snagged the BOV from sold me the pipe with it .. its the stock pipe that the stock BOV is connected to .. he just welded a flange onto it and blocked off the uneeded stuff ...

the BOV sounds great ... i love it

yeah they bum me out to ... but the body is gonna be the last thing i mess with as to me its the most unimportant ...

im all go no show


and i dont think the car was on fire, as the title is clear, and if it was restored they did a DAMN good job of hiding it ...


and to honda hater .. the BOV FLANGE is welded to the stock tube that goes from the turbo to the intercooler ... the BOV is then bolted to the flange

well you have it where the flange IS the metal tube that my flange is welded to

im sure you could do it that way .. but the way i have it allows me to mate up another one later on down the road if i choose ..

use the stock tube that goes between the turbo and intercooler, and just weld the flange to that tube .. makes it much easier to upgrade the BOV later on
