Hardpipes and BOV question

[Asian Beast]

Ok i want to buy dejon hardpipes with a turbo xs rfl bov and i dont know if i need to buy an adaptor kit or flange for it? I currently have a 1g bov on my 2g. And ofcourse I plan to get the gm maf and translator... thanks for the help!

When you go to Dejon's site, find the hard pipes you want to buy (I'm assuming you're going for the UIP-2gD set). There will be a drop down box in there that says BOV Flange. Just select Turbo XS since that's the bov you're getting.

Why don't you save the money and just stick with the 1g bov? Those extra bucks could be for something else.

Are you planning on doing a blow though or speed density setup with that gm maf and translater?

Unless you are running some good numbers, I don't see the need to spend the money on this.

well i plan on running a blow through set up... and ive heard that even the 1g crushed can only handle around 17psi and I am running around 20 so I want to upgrade to a stronger BOV. also if I get the flange for the Turbo xs doesn it look like an extra little pipe coming off the UIP? I would rather just get a 1g flange and use an adaptor kit just in case i plan on using another BOV in the future... any suggestions?

Something like this?

I would say get a bov you want and stick with it. Don't use an adapter as it just gives you more places to experience boost leaks. If you want something that'll handle a good amount of psi, look into a Tial. It's the best out there. If you don't like it or don't want to spend the money, look into an SSQV or some of the Greddy bov's. Those all rank higher than the Turbo XS ones. But, if that's what you're set on (probably because of the RFL sound), then get it.

In reference to the bov selection. I used one of their RFL's and I was vary pleased with it. It never leaked, I tested it to about 18 psi and it held fine. You cant recirc it, but if you have the tools to vent it and what not, its not a bad choice. If you want to drop a lot of money for a reputable name and un-matchable quality TiAL is the way to go. I dont think you will be disappointed with either.
