The install kit is just a flange that allows you to use the bov on your car. If you're still using a stock dsm intercooler pipe than the flange would adapt from the slip fit of the second gen bov to the flange of any bov that requires a flange, such as a Greddy or HKS or Blitz.... If you get a new pipe than you will only need the generic flange. :o

Sound is not a reason to Buy a Bov.
