ORIGINAL: Dusty Eclipse

Though Im actually noticing you sort of just summed up what I said... lol
Lmao, dude, you're cracking me up, lol.
I was agreeing with you and I just reiterated it, lol...you drunk bastard, lmao.

98gstpy, the 1G bov won't bolt up to your bov flange. You've got the 2g bov flange on there and it needs to be removed and the 1G bov flange welded on. At this point you can go with any bov you like because you will have to get a new flange welded on anyhow, just make sure you get one that can be recirculated back into the intake tract...like Dusty stated
I see what you're saying with the upper intercooler piping, so, yes, go with the Greddy bov so that will keep installation easy.

The bov should also have writing on the top. It says "soft" with an arrow pointing in one direction and "hard" in the opposite direction.

now if i went with a 16g turbo what size injectors would be best. the car really isnt gonna be raced on a track i just want it faster for myself. the car is more of my everyday driver. would 550cc be able to handle it or should i go bigger. the turbo kit I am looking at is from turbokits.com and they have 3 differnt options: Mitsu 16g, Mitsu big 16g, or a Mitsu Evo 3 big 16g which would be best, in your opinion. will that be okay on an automatic trany?
