BOV

The BOV is a first generation talon bov acquired from my friend Chris StAubin for a price of FREE! Thanks Chris.  I cut the original pipe on each side of the flange and then slit it down both sides so i could wend it on to the 2.25 inch pipe I got to replace the air box in the upper intercooler plumbing. A hole was drilled in the pipe and then a hammer was used to bend the original pipe to the same contours as the new one. Then it was welded together. I like things looking neat so I used some bondo to smooth out the welds before i painted it. I also got a lawn mower filter from Fleet Farm to put on the BOV. The one I got actually fits right inside the BOV opening with some force. I also spent some time sanding and polishing the BOV to make it look good! Boy were my fingers sore!
