I got a WRX BOV, how do i get a flange on this?
 
I've read this BOV is basically the same one as the 1G DSM except newer and different intake and pressure release flanges right?

ok where can i get the intake flange part or can i use some steel and make an "adapter" plate style like the exhaust manifold adapter?

also where can i get the pressure release flange thing.. it's just opened and looks dumb.. :( :(

Well you could always find a wrx in a vacant parking lot...jimmy the hood and procede to cut the pipe for the BOV off ::)

Ok sorry I really dont know how else to get one and i certainly dont suggest my first idea ;D

You're gonna have to make one from steel. It shouldn't be that hard if you have access to a drill press.

yeah make it, go to a metal shop and get some steel and some sort of large cutting device and a drill press. also a couple of cats would do nicely.

I think they are. just go to a muffler shop and show them what you need and they could cut you up something. They usually dont make nice looking pieces so your going to have to sand it down and get some polishing down but at least you'll have a start.

YOu will be very happy with that. I am running the wrx bov on my civic. it works great. Stays closed on boost and instantly opens wide on vacume. blows hard as hell. Very nice sound. It is low key though. Just massive air, it is not a high pitched watttchhhuuu like an hks or blitz, but I like it. I got mine with a steel flange for $40 and it has a part that bolts on two the two holes on the release port that is angled. I will post some pics later. Or I can email them to you if you have email. I cant find a site to host my pics that I can hotlink from.
