yo Kenetix

thanks for offering us this option....i definetly wonna see pics.
i also would like to use the stock BPV, i love the way it sounds.
also if u can, give us a price without CAI.

polished is not bad, i would also like to know how much it would be to have it match the strut bar color.

thanks

i would like to use anothr kind of valve, like a blitz dd.

 

[Kenetix]

Well for all you people that are interested, I need to get a vote whether the stock BOV should stay or an area for a flange to be welded. So tell me, stock or aftermarket.

 

[SuperSpud]

stock should stay

 

[byohndspeed]

stock is fine by me.ill take 1 without the cai and unpolished.can you take paypal?also how much for them without the cai and unpolished?

 

[DiscreetSpeed]

aftermarket

 

[unwound]

definitely interseted.

as for the bpv/bov, i have no preference.
i have an hks ssqv on the stock pipes right now
so it doesn't matter.

if you do decide to weld on a flange, go with the hks(obviously )

 

[mikeeeee]

i want 1 no cai and flange for hks

 

[Dr.Sound]

stock

 

[t3ase]

stock.

 

[Kenetix]

I'll figure out a way where we can do both.

Can some one please tell me what the advantage of hard pipes is?

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

 

[Dr.Sound]

no advantage..........

i guess just the possibility of adding any type of a flange for a blowoff valve. Also they look better than plastic.

i think for practical use plastic ones are better because metal absorbs heat faster.

strength has nothin to do with it..........our plastic pipes will hold 20-25 psi easy. The engine will blow before any of the pipes do.

Thanks Dr Sound.

it will work with joe's FPR kit?

 

[Dr.Sound]

yes,
just connect it to the silicone hose after the MAF.
make a small hole with a hot nail or something.

cant say that I agree with you there.. the stock plastic pipes expand, with stock boost.. this is what causes boost fade.. (one of the reasons)

also, our stock pipes ARE cracking

AND if the pipes are kinda restricted, they go flat, dont hold the same shape, etc...

so getting aftermarket hard pipes will yeild gains..

special mazda glue that CANNOT be duplicated.....

no, I dont know.were you messing with it? which elbow is it? is it an elbow? or is it the "T"? if its an elbow, that means it either is connected to your wastegate, intake manifold, or bov, and they are not glued on, they are simply clamped on by the metal clamp..

if you go to the meet this friday, you can show me
