I want to put on my greddy type-s blow off valve but I really don't want to spend almost $400 for the greddy elbow with the flange welded on and the piping to bolt up to the stock intercooler. I was thinking about fabricating a pipe that will replace the black rubber piece that goes from the intercooler to the stock elbow. has anyone put in a blow off valve without going front mount or with out the greddy elbow and piping? if so let me know if my idea will work or are there any other suggestions on how to munt this blow off valve?

i have the same bov and i bought a hard pipe kit for the ic pipes. then i had the bov welded to the hard pipe coming out of the ic. then i ran tubing from the bov to the far left side of the top manifold where there is an extra nipple. i can post pics if you need them

id say go to mechanic lol all i know

i believe the hard pipe kit is a good investment. It gets rid of those nasty flexing rubber hoses and it looks a lot better. the rubber hoses tend to, over time, split or crack and leak precious boost . i had it happen to me and thats why i got the hard pipe kit.

heres a pic of my bov placement and the hard pipe kit

hey hyper7 can u send me a bigger pic because i can barely see it? also how much did the hard pipe cost and where did you buy it from? lastly you also bought the greddy elbow is that right but I can't really tell from the pic?
basically how much will i be looking at and where can i get it the cheapest?

sorry about the pic i didnt think it actually went through

heres a closer look at the bov mounted on the pipe

fatal2169, i do also have the greddy elbow with the hard pipe kit. it was purchased through own business (velocity auto engineering) my web site should be up in a month or so. look on the parts section first, you might be able to find someone who has the kit but does need it such as colesrx7

I have the same BOV and installed it in the stock position. I have a question on the adjustment. How did you guys adjust the spring?

Did you guys pressurize it and see at what psi it will hold to?

hyper7

I adjusted mine by the way it sounded because i still use the stock bov which releases the pressure better than the greddy. the greddy on mine releases the pressure better at low rpms and the stock works best at high speeds and high rpms
