I got the 1g bov w/ flange and pipe today in the mail. How do i go about installing it on my 2g GST? I looked around the forums and tech article library and i couldn't find out how to put it on. Somebody help me out w/ the intallation or point me to a thread or article that has the procedure on it. Thanks

Take the intake pipe and filter off, remove the plastic piece of crap uicp and bov, replace with new ones, put intake pipe and filter back on. Make sure all vac lines and whatnot are hooked up.

It's very straight forward, unless you've never even seen a wrench before, you should be able to do it without a "how to"
 
Yes it's very easy, and when you're done double check all your clamps and make sure they are tight.
 
Well just search around google for some tech articles. I just did an install of a greddy type rs. I'm kind of new to all this so I'm not to familiar with the terminology but here it goes. First I took the tube that connects to the bov and removed it. Than there is the re-circulation(sp?) tube that goes to the intake, remove the two clamps. Than there is one clamp on the bov and remove that. Than gently remove the bov. You should now see the upper ic pipe. Take the new bov and put it in there, and than just do the whole procces over. If it doesn't fit directly than you should have the adapters.
 
you might also want to look around for how to crush your 1g bov, makes it hold more boost. normally its better then the 2g that can hold 14psi, but not too much better. crushed it can do better

so do i need to purchase a aftermarket UICP that has a adapter for the 1g bov? If i do could anybody name a few good UIC pipes off to me.


Dejon Tool is usually the general concensus when talking UICP
