I’ve had a look at other posts but I’m kinda wantin to know the most common way of:

 

where do you lot mount your bovs? i have a set of blitz on mine and there such a tight fit, the guy who had this before me had to take fuse box cover off and they have been hitting the bonnet and slam panel aswell - do you think it could be best to mount these near the re-circulating valves/pipes near my air filter or could it be i havnt got the correct hard pipes? (because flanges fit bovs but cant move around where there placed) but just wondering.

 

ideas on this one anyone?

 

Also engine bay pics could be handy too

 

cheers

They are always a tight fit mounted there but I've not heard of anyone having to take the fuse cover off so maybe your hard pipes aren't very well made.

You could put them in place of the recirc valves but you might not have the right mounting parts if it came already fitted to hard pipes.

Can be adapted though I'm sure.

I had blitz bov's on hard pipes, yes it is a very

tight fit, but they should fit, you may have to

wiggle the pipe about a bit.... ;)

Here's a pic of where mine were fitted.

thanks boys that is a help - so really should leave them where they are on the hard piipes and have a wiggle about - i can see one thing dofferent already and thats the pipes connecting to them run around the car in a different place - eg: around the fuse box - not over it - i will have a go. cheers again chaps

You really want the fuse cover back on as it could be a nightmare if water got in there.

If you slacken off all the clips there's usually quite a bit of movement on the pipes if you wrench them about.
