Default 300zx BOV questions

Ok, Well I am now shopping for a bov for my '90 with a '95 motor swap. I will eventually be at 20psi. I love the hks ssq, but not the price tag lol. I was thinking of the turboxs rfl, they sound good and price isn't to bad. I feel retarded for asking but i need two of them, correct? Also, will i need to get the hard piping kit or will it work on the stock piping?

You're going to have to get a section of hard pipe to make the BOV's work. Besides, metal piping doesn't expand under boost... Yes, you'll need two... Since it is a MAF metered car, I would also look into the recirc kit as well, but you don't have too. Although the correct way would be to recirc, the BOV's.

Hard pipe for what? I have RFLs on stock piping and they work fine, you just have to block off the recirc line.

And Stage3, yes you need 2 of them. The only problem I've heard with them is the springs getting weak after awhile and they start leaking. I haven't driven mine in awhile but when I did I had no problems and they didn't leak during boost leak tests, but I never filled it with more then 10psi for testing.

Thanks buddy, do the rfl's sound as good as they do on youtube?
