Is your starion intercooled and can you weld?

could you just make a new crossover pipe (standard)out of someother metal?
or would it need to be a tuned length or something?

if you dont have an intercooler you can cut a piece out of the crossover pipe and put the blow off valve there.. thats how mine was done.. then connect the other side of the blow off valve to the vaccum hose (mines connected to the same one as the boost gauge, which then goes to the little box on the firewall, cant think of the name for it. lol) ..

someone told me it was EXTREMELY DANGEROUS to hook your BOV up to the brake booster vac line.. they said not to tap around with the brakes..
thats how my car was when i showed him, and he almost had a heart attack..

BOV goes on the middle port of the top three on the trotel body. I have tried other ports and that one works best. I would not mess with the brake port either, that also is a presure sensative one to my knowledge.

Please..not on the booster line.
I will send you a 'T' piece with your products that you have ordered and some extra vacum line that you will need.
I will also draw you a diagram on the whole construction and how to set it up.

Yeah I was expecting shipping out to him would be expensive, hard to belive theres no other market at all for these kind of parts there.
Apparently hard to find places for mechanical work as well, I helped him out with the bov and he passed the photos on to his mechanic.
Sounds like his turbo will be the next problem.
