Thanks guys keep it coming.

AArotary: How easy was it to get a custom flange for that IC pipe to your BOV? Can you get a custom flange for an Apexi BOV for that IC pipe? WHo can do it? and how $$?

What kind of single turbo did you go with. Very nice and VERY clean. You have the nicest FD that I have ever seen.

Hey AArotary, is that the Type R blowoff valve from Greddy? I was thinking about getting that or the HKS sequintial. Which one do you recommend for a loud, but very nice sound?

Either go with the Greddy type-R or the HKS SSQV or the HKS racing sequential BOV but it cost alot more.

I think you have to custom a flange or you can buy a kit for the RX-7 and it comes with all the hardware to mount the BOV.

7 eleven your engine bay rules!

Like the greddy piping.

AArotary: where can you buy pipes with flanges already set up on them? Any sites?

What about a flange for an HKS SSBOV?

Yeah Billy, I know Jason has one with a flange. But for only the Tpe R BOV. I kinda want to know if there is one for a HKS SSBOV. I saw a pic form Under PSI that had that setup. But hes hasnt PM'd me back.

You could always buy the elbow or pipe, by the bov and mounting thing and just take it to a welding shop near you and have them cut a hole and weld it on.

That is true. I could do that. I would be afraid they would mess up the polish of the elbow. I might do that.

Thanks!

anyone ever polsihed then got there IC piping and other lauminum stuff anodized? That would be different. I know a few tuners (PFS) powdercoat some of the stuff, mainly the IC Piping.

Only visible mods are the K&N and the Paxton; the bdfpr is tucked down on the firewall.
