BOV Question
 

Below is a picture of my BOV. I don't know anything about BOV flanges, but I'm curious how people are installing these knock off BOV's. At the very least, what flange should I use. Any help on the install would really help.

Thanks

Anyone else want to help me out since the last post made so much sense?

Re:BOV Question
 

is it aluminum? it should have come with a steel pipe that you weld to your charge pipes and it connects to that. :-\ if it's not aluminum, you can just weld it to your charge pipes.

Nope! What you see in the picture is exactly what I got. There are no mounting screws to mount it to anything else. Only what's in the picture. Guess I'll just drill a hole and JB weld the son-of-a on there.

i had the exact same BOV. it would flutter like the wings on a humingbird. in other words, it sucked big time. i ended up having to replace it cause i had it on with the cap loose tryin to make it work right and the cap came off while driving and the piston and spring jumped out onto the road, i got outta the car and i couldn't them. i ordered a knock off rfl bov and it just kicks but. that one you need a short 1 inch tube welded onto your charge pipe and then you connect a hose to the tube and the bov bottom goes into the hose, and clamped down. if yours doesn't flutter=compressor surge, sounding like a scared pigeon, play the lotto cause it's your lucky day. ;D

What is it made of??

You can weld it to a like substance.

If it is aluminum just weld it to an alum tube and connect the tube to your pipes.
