Oh and someone made the comment of welding your bov to the elbow, well unless you are running the GReddy elbow you cant really do that since your stock elbow is plastic. Good luck.

my stock elbow has a cap at the end of it... like the size of the hose for the bov. Is this only on japanese rx7??

just wondering... would you think i can just install my stock bov there??

I'm trying to further understand what makes some BOV's better than others. Between shifts, a BOV thats vents the most volume the quickest is best correct? I mean the faster it vents, the less chance of the turbos slowing down and the quicker the boost recovers once the throttle is re-applied? Is this correct, or am I completely confused?

HKS is a pull type, which (I think) means its less prone to leaking under high boost.
