How to fit a HKS SSQV?

[Jim_rx7]

Hi,

I have a HKS SSQV sitting here that I got with the car.

Totally clueless as to where this gets plumbed into on the rx7. I\'m used to good old fashioned piston type engines. lol.

Is there a Bov fitting guide anywhere that anyone knows of?

Much appreciated!

Jim

ok ill assume you know something then

i have the same BOV

stand in front of your car with the bonnet open and then look to the left of the engine.

You will see that there is a flat big plastic pipe coming going down next to the plenum - look down there - out from the lower intake manifold theres a stock BOV - remove that and plumb in the new HKS bov - "Y" a vacuum pipe and then connect that.

go for a drive and admire the new whoosing noise your car makes.

Well, there is two stock "bovs" around that area.

And wouldn\'t it be better to seal off the one you are replacing, and then plumb the HKS SSQV all the way up on the intake elbow? So it sits closer to the intake, and after the IC.

ah, so do you block off the top hose going into the left hand incduction kit (looking at the pic) ?

Where does the vac line get plumbed into?

Also, where can you get a blanking thing for where the hose would normally connect to on the induction kit??
