greddy style bov direct bolt on?

[Sandman817]

Just like the title of the thread, my question is... if i get a greddy style BOV (S or RS) what do i have to do to get it to directly bolt onto my factory UICP? I am not trying to get a new UICP right now because i am going to get a FMIC kit down the road a little bit when i get some more money together and they come with all the hard piping. Is there a flange that i can buy that i can bolt to my factory UICP flange and then bolt the BOV to that? Thanks

yes theres a flang that you can buy with it, im sure theres an option to order one with the BOV if you look -- its a direct bolt on for a 1g, for the 2g youll need that flang

thanks for the quick reply, i have actually decided i am going to go with a knock off ssqv.

Stay away from the queefing BOV


If you must go with it, make sure you get the recirculating kit with it. Only vent if you have a GM MAF in blowthrough or are running speed density.

Be careful with knock-off bov's. I've seen some fail due to inferior diaphragms. If you want a cheap one just buy a 1g bov with the necessary flange or if you can find one from an evo 9 that will be even better considering it holds more boost and bolts right up to the factory 2g uicp.

yes i know i need to purchase the hks recirc kit. This is the bov i am most likely going to get.

For around the same money you could pick up a proven bov like the 1g or evo 9 valve, and I promise you they are of better quality then any knock off HKS bov.

well really right now, im trying to get something that sounds a bit louder than the factory 2g recirc. It sounds good now, but i would like something that sounds a bit louder. How does the evo 9 sound? and is that a direct bolt on to the 2g uicp?


I did come across this one, but it is more than i am wanting to pay for a used bov.

Honestly you shouldn't worry about the sound. If you BOV is leaking which it will after 12psi, then yes get a stronger one. If you are just wanting sound then go with a GM MAF and translator. You'll get more sound with a hard intake and hard IC piping btw.

I would stay far away from the BOV you listed as it will most likely leak out of the box. I was expecting to see the Syncronic or NGR knockoff.

Just get a cheap 1g BOV until you have the funds to vent properly then get a TiAL and be done.

The evo 9 bov IS a direct bolt on for the factory UICP on the 2g. I personally care far more about performance then sound, but the evo 9 bov sounds better in my opinion anyway, and won't fail after 1k miles or so, and can hold plenty of boost.

 

[Sandman817]

yea i definetly sound like a moron right now haha. I am going to hold off on the BOV until i get my FMIC kit beacuse i am only running 10 pounds of boost with my b16g right now.

but i am going to agree with you on performance>sound.
