So i went out 3s hunting today and i found a place that has a 2nd gen 3s out of an altrac and out of a MR2. Im thinkin of gettin the mr2 one cuz it comes with every thing and an uncut harness. The main thing i noticed about it was that since it doesnt have a top mount intercooler it has this pipe that goes across the block after the turbo. It has a lil flange right above the turbo. The guy at the shop said its a perfect place to put a BOV. So my question is, can i put a BOV there? and second question is, can i use this pipe with the all the other piping for the intercooler? or would i have to replace it??.

Best pics i could find of the pipe im talkin about...

Also for piping. I got quoted from JRP (yea im still dealin with them, dont ask why) for piping. At somepoint i got a list of piping sizes and bends and every thing. The pipes i got listed were 8 90 degree pipes, 1 45 degree and 1 180 degree. For the 90 degree pipes they want $40 a pop, and the 45s they want $68 a pop and they dont carry 180s. Is this 2 much for 2 inch aluminum pipes? Im thinkin of goin 2 an exhaut shop soon and asking them for pricing.

the 2 big problems youll have with a mr2 3s is #1 the harness is diffrent, and #2 some of the accessories are in diffrent spots, the waternecks are diffrent, ect..unless your just swapping out one 3s for antoher, its much easier to start with a celica clip
