[mkiv] Re: Mounting HKS BOV with recirculation

[Thomas Bradley]

Hey Gary,
 
Those pics do a good job of showing where and how you mounted the valve. 
 
What mount is that and where did you get it? 
I assume it's made by HKS for that valve? 
 
I've seen the recirculation mode "insert" for sale that installs on the outlet side for converting it to the recirculation type but I haven't seen that inlet base you have with the hose fitting and valve flange on it before, especially as one complete unit that looks almost factory and fits in the stock BOV spot.

Here are some pictures I tried to take of the BOV with the recirculation 
fitting installed.  The TRD bar does get in the way of a clear shot. 
Hope that helps.  I could try to take some better ones again.
