Im planning on buying and instaling a HKS SSQV on my R1 Rx-7 but i have some questions about it before i do anything. I know the car has a BOV in it already so what do you do when you put the HKS on. I know you can put it on the stock location but im thinkin of putting it on the IC pipe before the elbow on the GReddy system. Would i need to buy the Universal kit to do this?

 

Yes, buy the universal kit and the proper flange (probably aluminum in your case), and get it welded to a pipe as close to the TB as you can.

 

ok, i just looked inside the engine compartment and was looking. There is a TKT intake kit on my car. I didnt put this on, but it looks like it has 2 BOV's. They are comming from the Y pipe. These to tubes go to another one from underneath the intake manifold and then connect to a small intake. Is this all true. And about where to instal the BOV i really wouldnt care. In the stock position would be fine so would i buy the 93-95 Rx-7 Kit.

 

i have mines on the stock location. jus took out the stock one. some peeps say putting it closer to the throttle body is better, some its not, jus depends on your preference. one is a bov and one is a crv

There is one closer to the firewall and has a silver sticker on it. Is that the BOV? What the hell is a CRV. Im new to rotary and this car. My old car was a 240SX. Just got this puppy and only 16. LMAO.

 

ok i found the BOV and on my TKT it connects to another hose and i guess recirculates the air. Would it have any effect or matter if i disconnected this.

 

be careful, you may not be laughing too long


Also, as many will tell you, a BOV is not very high on the list of things to buy. The stock one works fine. Start with the 3rd gen FAQ at the top of this section of the forum.

 

I know. Im also getting a Apexi N1 Exhaust, downpipe, etc (anything to free exhaust flow). It already has Efini Y Pipe, TKT intakes.

 

find the hose that runs from your ABV to your airbox..disconnect that hose..take your new bov and place it where the ABV was..plug the opening to where that original hose went to..

job done

 

OK thanks for that info that ill need. But i got another? Does anyone have a pic of the parts that come with the 93-95 Rx-7 HKS SSQV Kit. Or a pic of it installed.

 

i bought a used kit and it came with steel braided line that connects to the stock location and a flange where the bov mounts to and the hose hooks on the the bottom of the flange. its very simple

 

well like the hose from the Y pipe goes up to the AVC right now. I am guessing that the HKS kit comes with an adapter w/ a flange that connects to the hose, right? Then you connect the lines and all that, right?
