thanks guys....also do you know if the flange on it is the same as any others. i bought it with the pipe it ataches to but its like 1 3/4 inch around, i was just wondering so i could get a adapter to just weld onto the chargepipes

They leak bad as ----, some guys are getting lucky obviously. Just use a hose clamp to put it on.

Some bypass valves are supposed to be cracked open at idle. IE dsm 1g valves, and some of the bosch valves.

huh ??? it has a 2 bolt flange on it that conects it to a hard pipe. the hard pipe is dinky like 1 3/4 inch i want a bigger one so its not so restrictive. the question was is it the same as the 2 bolt greddy flange, dsm 2 bolt flange, ect... so i can bolt it up to somthin bigger

Oh i was looking at another thread and replying to this one at the same time lol ignore that. The flange is one off, its not the same as any other bov/bpv. You'd be better off just buying a 1g DSM BOV and using it.

heat the charge pipe up amd smack it with a hammer so you have a flat spot
put jb weld on that spot and the grind it flat
dril your 2 hole and then nut and bolt it on with a good gasket
