Talking Blow off valve

I have a 93 rx7 with the touring package. I want a Blow Off Valve. It is an automatic. I think stock it comes with 2 BOV's but not sure. I looked and was confused I either have 2 bov's and a wastegate or somthing like that. So i need to know if i need 2 new BOV's or if i can Y pipe them or what the hell is going on.
Help Plz

You need to go spend a lot of time in the 3rd gen section. You don't need anything that even closely resembles a B.O.V. The car has two on it (technically) that work just fine, and are more reliable than most of the aftermarket units.

yes, go browse through the Gen III forum a bit and get acquainted with your car and the FAQs about it.

besides ... i'm sure BOVs are the least of your worries in terms of what to have done first.

Well, I think he wants the BOV for the sound right? In that case you need only one.

just wondering but has anyone who is running sequential ever replaced both the abv and crv with aftermarket units? imo it would be a waste of money but i'm just curious.

a kid in my school tried to tell me that if you drill 20 holes in your exhaust in a spiral pattern, it will sound like a BOV... maybe you should try that.
