HKS BOV on Evo IX MR
I was looking at the HKS SSQV4 blow off valve on lancershop for the Evo IX and it says it won't fit the MR models. Does anybody know why? Is the blow off valve set up on the MR models different from the GSR? I thought they were the same. Can someone give me an explaination why it won't fit on an MR before I buy the wrong bov. Thanks!

2. No reason it wouldn't fit

Not many have been able to get there EVO's to behave properly with it even recirc.

So unless your going SD I'd look elsewhere.
