Default Where do you buy HKS SSQV BOV adapters ?

Iv decided on getting a HKS SSQV BOV but going by the pictures you need an adapter , iv looked round the internet but cant find any , i know they exist as theres some on really old for sale threads from the US , I also read something about using the standard re-circulating BOV fittings to attach it , Does anyone know how to do that or where to buy an adapter ?

This type of BOV -

That one wont fit, It has to have a circlip attatchment not a screw in one, Cheapest one i found is the one i`v posted but it`s in the states, I ordered one a while back and took about 10 days to arrive, Decent quality too for about £20 all in.

Well it came today , Not very impressed with the noise tbh as it only goes of when you give it some , but theres bigger issues -

The pipe that clips onto the valve is too slack , Iv tried to put cable ties on to hold it in place for now but its no long term solution , What have you guys done with yours ?

Sorry mate, that was the link from the 1st bung that I ordered and it was to small- sorry , however if you get some black insulation tape and wrap it around the bung securely then you need to use a jubilee clip to secure it, not cable ties . The correct size bung is 33 mm , if you have no joy in securing the one you've ordered, pm me and I will send you one I have.
