What is the best BOV for the ebay SMIC?
Like the title says. I was just wondering what you guys are running with out having to modify the tubing supplied.
Thanks
Thanks
As far as the ducting question, post #13 may be of some help:

My bad! Here is a link to the one I was looking at.

^^^ That's what I was thinking.
and as far as the duct is concerned no one is currently making one for that size core. Pettit will sell you their cool charge III which is too large for this one, but fits perfectly on the 12x18 core.

On a further note about Greddy BOV's, don't buy a Type RS. They're junk. Type S's are great, especially the uber-hard to find black version from Japan. But of course you can always get an adapter or cut that flange off and weld on whatever style flange you need for the BOV that you really want. Go on youtube and search for different BOV's like the HKS SSQV, Turbo XS RFL, and Blitz DD to see what you like.
Chop if off, weld on the new Tial unit;http://www.mazdarxparts.com/index.php?topic=26.0

That's weird, I remember the Type RS I had fit perfectly on mine. I wonder if they just have a bunch of different flanges and pick from random when making these?

But it comes with a Greddy style flange, why would you do that?
I heard Greddy's BOV tend to leak at high boost... never ran a greddy before on my rx7 that is.. always had a HKS
. ebay and the real version. BOTH work and sounds the same!!
and if you still want to use ur stock one just replace that tube with a regular "SHORT RAM INTAKE TUBE" which i believe is the same lenght as the one that comes with the ebay IC . had 1 of those before!

The flange was way smaller then the Greddy one






especially since there isn’t just one ebay smic
