www.rx7store.net, www.gothamracing.com and several others have the pipes ready for you to buy. I can't recall if any of them have flanges for a BOV valve built in, though. check 'em out.

Jason has it with the BOV flange for $195. Honestly I think building an elbow a one off elbow on your own is not worth the headache, but some people love a challenge. Also this is intended for use with the Greddy BOV.

I think the Greddy Elbow has a flange for a BOV, not sure about any of the other hard pipes.

You can also use the same location of the stock one.

I don't think it will affect it that much. In fact hard pipes are on my list of things before I get a PFC.

To me hard pipes are more like a bling, bling factor for the stock set up.
