So I'm looking to order one soon.
I've narrowed it down to the begi if ken can get one or the hiboost.
I like how everyone is running a dual setup w/ the bov/bpv.
Now for example if I order the hiboost fmic (which is the one i might go w/) do have to have an extra nipple welded onto the pipe or is it already setup for a dual setup?
and does anyone have any extra info for me?
I'm also going to order a injen intake and do the install all at once.

last time i heard you can get a highboost kit for 970 shipped to your door with a greddy Type S or maybe its Type RS which im pretty sure it would include the flange no doubt

they will even give you a good deal on a injen intake to go along with it call em up

they said it comes w/ a small recirculating bpv.
and it's 900 shipped and w/ a injen intake it's 1150 shipped

You will have to get the extra nipple welded on.

The kit does not come set up to run the dual setup out of the box.... Although, I'm pretty sure HiBoost will do it for you if you specify you want it done before they ship it to you.

I've got a Type-S running on my HiBoost kit. I vented a while, and I am now recirculating it.

Send a PM to CasopoliS (I think that's how it's spelled). He has his running a Dual setup on the Hiboost. He's done a lot of expiramenting with the setup, so he can give you advice on that part of it.

CasopoliS has actually relocated his MAF also. I set my dual bov/bpv to be like his. I had some issues with it for the first couple of days, but I eventually worked tham out. Just make sure you get the right flange welded on for the bov you want to run. i.e. if you want the greddy have em weld the greddy flange, same goes for the hks.

I read through his post about the MAF relocation... looks like good results thus far.

How does the dual setup run now? Turkey? I assume no stalling...

What issues did you have at first? A matter of tuning the BOV/BPV?

i thought the Hi-Boost kit comes with a HKS BOV that can be recirculated if you want it to. Has anyone run just the HKS to the atmosphere successfully? I currently have the forge BOV and love the way it sounds. If I go to this FMIC kit im assuming i could use either the HKS or Greddy without modifications. How does the HKS sound?

i talked to hiboost and they said to leave the bpv recirculating and the hks i can have open vented and it won't stall.
so i'll let you know if it works when i get it
