BOV that fits the XS Power Intercooler Piping Flange

After searching through all of the info about the posts about the XS Power Intercooler, I cannot tell which BOVs fit the flange on the intercooler pipe that came with the kit. Any definitive answer?

Anyone know if the Greddy Type RS or Type S works?

I disagree. I had the XS intercooler a long time ago and my Greddy Type S was no where close to fitting. The flange was way too small for the Greddy. Maybe they use different flanges, I don't much about them.

Anyone know if the Greddy Type S flange differs from the Greedy Type RS flange? I am contemplating buying the Greddy Type RS if it will fit.

I know for a fact the blitz and greedy flanges are not the same fit so if the Blitz works then the Greddy won't and visea-versa.

Please let us/me know what you find out if you find someone with the Greddy. Or if anyone out there has had luck fitting the Greddy Type RS BOV on this flange.

Let's stick to the topic. Will the Greddy Type RS BOV fit the flange or not? If not, what else besides the Blitz BOV fits?

One guy says he's running a Blitz on his so it must fit a Blitz. if it fits the Blitz than it won't fit a Greedy. Are you even sure all the flanges are the same ? Since another guy said his mechanic test fit a Greedy. I'f you can measure the bolt pattern and the exhaust port (where it mates to the flange I can give you the answer for sure as I have two Blitz BOV sitting on my bench waiting for a new home.

Bolt holes-center to center: 1 7/8"
Outside of flange: 2 1/2" x 2"
