I got mine for www.turbohoses.com, they fit perfect and the stock BPV hooks right up in the same place. A little expensive, but I like them and i feel a differece in the top end.
PICS!

So the turbohoses pipes have flanges/mounts(whatever) for the stock bpv? I didnt see one on the pic on their site. For 395 not a bad price. Ooh and they have a smic coming!

You use the existing clamp that is on the tube. No modification needed. The pics are only prototype pics, the real ones are polished not dull like the pics. It comes with the 600 degree silicone hump hoses so when the motor shakes it won't put stress on the plastic end tanks on the IC. Also they are aluminum instead of steel because the aluminum with dicipate the heat more and won't hold it in like steel will. You can call and talk to Hoover he was a lot of help and new what he was doing.
 
I purchased their upper intercooler pipes for my MR2, so I know they are nice quality. Just never heard anything about the production unit.
 
I will try to get the pics tonight so you can see how the BPV hooks up, I just hope my phone takes clear enough pictures.

correct me if i am wrong: doesn't steel hold up to enigine temps better than aluminum does? i assume when you say aluminum, you mean aluminized steel, correct? i know aluminum dicipates heat better, but won't steel last longer--esp. stainless.

Yeah it does hold heat better, but wouldn't you rather have the heat away from the pipes for cooler air rather than keeping it in? But it is T-6 Aluminum not steel. Yes steel will last longer.
 
Just ordered my hard pipe kit from turbo hoses. Now I need to order bov with flange. It's time to look pretty....... whatever
