bov welding ?
 

bov....i bought some pipe from a muffler shop to weld my turbo xs bov to. i just cant stand it being connected through a rubber piece - it just doesnt work. is there anything that i need to worry about when welding it? Any tips when wleding it? thanks

Wouldn't you BOV be aluminum. You got aluminum pipe from a muffler shop?

I would try to use a flange to your charge pipe.

get the matching flange in steel, weld it to a short section of pipe. Weld that to your charge pipes. Bolt the two flanges together. ;)

its not aluminum pipe, its that aluminized steel pipe... i thought you could just drill a hole, place the bov in it, and then beed around the bov....you cant do that?

this type of bov doesnt have a flange, it does come with another tube you put on the end to enxtend it.

this is my bov - http://www.turboxs.com/_images/BOV_Type_S_small.jpg

I don't know man, I would just say I wouldn't want my bov mount permanently to my charge pipe.

Would not still need a rubber hose from your outlet on your charge pipe to that style of bov.

you should be able to get that piece in steel so you can weld it on the pipe

Re: bov welding ?

That bov looks like anodized aluminium to me, try to stick a magnet to it ::)
