Twinturbo BOVs

My 1994 RX-7 is a twin turbo so would I need 1 BOV for each turbo?

You just buy one. Make sure to get one with a kit unless you have hard pipes you can mount a universal BOV to...

say you get the greddy bov and elbow that has the bov flange on it. what do you do with the stock bov? cork it?

also another ? just curious on where other aftermarket bovs are located.

im guessing that if i bought 1 or searched id would find out, but this is much faster, and its not off topic... well not too much.

Just pull the stock BOV and cap off the old connection (except for the smaller one that runs to the UIM).

As far as other aftermarket BOV's, it depends on whether or not they have a flange (kit) for the RX-7. If they have a flange, you can use the stock tubing (like the Apexi Twin Chamber BOV).

Yep, the stock shift **** also works with a lot of modifications.... However, people still change it out.

Use the search function. You'll be able to find almost all your questions quicker. As for where the BOV is located, check this thread:

Why do you want to get two BOV's when not needed, while in other threads you don't want your RX-7 to make any loud noises?
