should i do hahn

I went with ZZP....but there are several brands you can go with. And to be honest....I'm not sure what the real difference is between any of the brands other than price....

Maybe someone else can chime in if they know any "real" differences....

They are all better than the " worm " I bought the first one that was available here. It was a Dejon, three pieces. i'm sure they all work, some are two piece.

This is the ZZP Hotside Pipe:



I also went ahead and ordered the silicone connectors along with the hotside pipe.

Our cars come factory with an internal BOV. Some people block off the stock BOV and move it to the hotside pipe. If you move the BOV...you will need to be tuned for it. And honestly...I'm not sure what the gain is of an extrenal BOV other then the sound it gives off??

If I were you...I would just go with the Forge Motorsports BOV.

Here is the Forge Motorsports BOV:
It's made from aluminum...and has a type of a "piston".

Here is the stock BOV:

The stock BOV is plastic...has a rubber bladder and spring...which have been known to fail or stick.

This is where the BOV is located. Easy to change out with the Forge Motorsports BOV. It's held in the 3 10MM bolts and a vacuum line clamp. Thats it.

Pretty cheap huh


You really wouldn't "have" to change the BOV. I did because I had so many problems with the car running right. Figured it wouldn't hurt.

And some guys don't buy the silicone connectors...because with the ZZP hotside pipe...you can use your stock connectors. But...I wanted everything new...so I decided to buy them. So...you can cut a few corners if you want to.

In your case...I would do the trifecta, change out the hot side pipe and intercooler....and call it a day.
