HKS Blow off Valve
Will the HKS Super Sequential blow off valve replace BOTH factory Blow off valves, or do I need 2? If it will replace both...how?

You only have one blow off valve. The other is the Charge Releif Valve (CRV). Any aftermarket replacement is only for the BOV, not the CRV. They are two seperate things.

Good question Pumped, I'd like to know myself. My daughter bought a blitz BOV and her boyfriend mounted it in the upper IC pipe going to the intake elbow pipe that attaches to the throttle body. It bugs me every time I see it cause I just don't know if it can go there or not.
If anybody out there has got an answer for this, I'd appreciate it.

If you mount it on the turbo side of the I/C it will not work as good as if it was mounted on the throttle body side of the I/C cause A) It doesn't release the pressure to the enine as quick as if it were right by the throttle body and B) the engine is still sucking air and it looses the air charge in the I/C and the turbo has to fill all that up back up where if it was closer to the throttle body it keeps the psi up. basicly put: When mounted on the turbo side of the innercooler it doesn't work as good is if it were on the throttle body side of the innercooler.
