Ok... I've looked pretty much everywhere and can't find a solid answer... SO



I want to rid the engine bay of as much crap as possible. I'm going to remove the BOV and CRV cap the holes and use a single BOV on the IC piping.



What is good to cap the holes? Should I weld a plate over them?



I know the stock BOV would do just fine, but I want a more solid, professional looking install. Not rubber pipes everywhere. Recommend a BOV? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

most people use little rubber caps welding would be better/ more durable tho

I take it you are non-seq?



I like the cut and weld idea.



TiAL is a pretty sweet BOV, HKS SSQV should be big enough for the stock twins.

the ssq leaks...i would go with tial or apex-i.

apex-i is known to leak also. there was a thread on this on the "other" forum regarding bov's and crv's

wraith 07-16-2003 01:17 PM

really? every thing i've read on apex-i says that their BOV is one of the best on the market as far as doing what a BOV is supposed to do.

I found rubber caps at Autozone. They work perfectly.

I don't own an FD, so I'm not entirely sure what holes you are referring to, but couldn't you just tap the hole, put some thread tape or lock-tite on a bolt, and screw it in? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif
