No, that elbow will only work with the Greddy Type S BOV.

So the HKS SS is a direct replacement of the stock bov?

Both HKS and Greddy make kits for the FD that will replace the stock BOV.

What's the deal with putting a BOV on the elbow? Does it replace the stock BOV (i.e. you remove the stock one and just have the Greddy?)? Been wondering this for a while.

I'm pretty sure you could leave the other ones and having working or i would bet most people just cap it off to make the $300 BOV sound like it should.

I just installed the HKS SS a few days ago. It directly replaces the stock one, and if I'd had some better tools it would have been a lot easier, but overall not that hard.

Got pics? Is your HKS the one specifically for the FD, or the generic one?

Ya is it better to get the specific kit for the car or should a guy save the cash and get the universal? Can't be that much extra in the kit is there?
