Where to get C2 elbow or alternative
Our host seems to sell these but it is a special order. Anyone know of an alternative elbow? I assume that I can get a silicone albow and then attach a BOV to the IC correct?

Here are photos of two alternatives for plumbing the BOV discharge into the turbo inlet ducting, one photo shows a factory elbow modified with a 1" aluminum flange and a short connector hose (places the valve in the stock C-2 turbo location), The other photo shows a steel 1" elbow bolted to the connector tube between the A/F meter elbow and the turbo inlet steel duct, Both work equally well.
Regards, Lou

If you contact Kokeln directly, they sell an installation kit which inlcudes the 90* rubber elbow, the Al connection pipe, and the recirc valve.....

An elbow just sold on eBay for $30. I almost picked it up, just because, but I already figured out an alternate way to do the updated BOV without it.

Doesn't the factory elbow go from say 4" to 3" and then the aluminum adapter takes it from 3" to 2 1/2" (or some similar numbers?).
You could probably get a 90* silicone elbow and have a muffler shop make a reducer for you. No idea if this is cost effective. |

I have build this a while ago, machined from alumiunium.
It fits straight on the 930 elbows, bov can be connected easy.  Falk

forwheeler, the aluminum piece is optimized for flow.
There is no step inside, its a cone ( hopefully my english fits here ~) More, on the bigger side the edge was cutted with a nice radius. For flow, the part is fine, much better then the 930 original piece. Falk
