Cool

I have it with my single turbo set up, got it from Chris at RX7.com.
It is FRL. I scare the **** out of drivers with their windows rolled down when I shift next to them.

does anyone know if that bov mounts up to a standard flange? i have the mount that came with my apex'i bov and i might be selling just the bov itself and was just wondering if the turboxs would bolt up to that flange. i know a guy that has one for a good price, but don't wanna get something that don't work

The Apexi flange is for the Apexi only.

Yeah pretty much what Mahjik said, all aftermarket bov's use their own type of mounting flange however some bov manufacturers sell adapter flanges to adapt their bov to work on another flange you might already have welded in to your piping. For instance TurboXS sells adapter flanges to make their bov's fit HKS/Greddy bov flanges. Don't know if they sell a Apexi adapter though.

The RFL is really supposed to be loud, but I have a Type-S on my single setup and it's about perfect. I can hear it over my loud exhaust, but it's not overpowering.
