Any one have a pic of your ETS..

Hi guys I was looking for a pic of your ETS intercooler pipe and BOV flange I think mine is way to low. My flange is almost at the bottom of the car, right at the bottom of the cooling fan. There is no way to recycle it being that low.??? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Thank you ,. Mike

That s normal for the stock replacement setup. The stock location of the BOV is way down there.

I ended up patching that hole and moving it closer to the TB.

You can see it my "my rides" post. Just click on the link in my sig.

I have an ETS pipe with a 1g bov flange that sits closer to the throttle body. I'll take a picture of it when I get home. Right now I have the piping with the bov flange in the same spot yours is with a greddy bov. I personally like the cleaner look of the bov sitting lower, I just rigged up some hose to fit the 2g intake pipe I have.
 

Quoting Hertz:
Turn the pipe around.



I will see if I can turn the pipe around, That wold be me only shot as I can not spin the BOV around cause of I do that the vacume line would be cut off by the fan blade.

Did you get any pics?? I was think of rigging something up to fit but the BOV is facing the graound and can not turn due to the cooling fan blades.

Also Terry I took a look at you pics but did not see the BOV location.. NICE RIDE btw.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 

Thanx Terry. I'm also gonna try doing what Hertz said an see if I can flip the pipe if not I will be asking Jesse(Revolution Motor sports) to send me the correct one..

These are the only pics I have. When I went with the JMF manifold and the 1g NT TB I cut and turned around the pipe with the BOV.
In the last pic you can see it by the strut tower right next to the windshield washer bottle.




 

Hey thanx iLLeffeKt vr-4 , For the pic your then man.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif. Does anyone know why these systems come with the flang so friking low?? I really do not want to get into cutting and flipping the pipe,... :/
 

Hertz no its not in the stock location. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif The flang is below the center cooling fan an not up next to the valve cover. Plus the BOV vent has to point towards the ground cause if I spin it so it faces up the vacume line will be in the fan blade sweep.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I have an ETS intercooler with a 1G BOV flange in the stock location. My BOV faces up, but it is very close to the fan. I had to play with the piping and try to force it to sit where I wanted it while I tightened the clamps. It took some "finagalling", but I was able to get it to clear the fan. I used a modified Injen intake pipe and a piece of 90 degree radiator hose to recirculate the BOV back into the intake. Here's a link to my thread showing how I did it. Hope this helps.

WOW nice work on the fab job also.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif But I can not turn my BOV upwards( Greddy) the vacume port
is on the back an would be in the fan. From you pics you BOV flange is higher than mine.. MY BOV is
actually inside the shroud housing a bit. I have pics but on my phone and do not know how to host them
on here.. LOL, Heck I can email them to myself but do not know how to remove the pic to my desk top.
DUMMY.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

A 3mm allen key will help your situation. Just unscrew the top of the Greddy and spin it 180* so it is oriented like the stock bov. Then you won't have a problem with the vacuum line in the fan.
 

Ah I did not know I could rotate the top of that I saw the allen keys but did not even think of it Thanx.
