i got a 2 peice one and welded them together and then welded the bov flange on. They welded together fine but i just tacked the bov flange on since it caught on fire both times i welded it (yes, it caught fire, it was reddish purple, and yes it was an Ebay bov) i used a Mig welder with an aluminum gun from school

anyways it ended up being jb welded

if it's the kinda ebay CAI I'm thinking of it's probably not even aluminum, it may be plastic....?
