remember to carefully check the adjustment of the wastegates before installation and the orientation of the cold part of the rear tirbo

Interestingly in my US spec E82 8 had to put a shorter waste gate actuator on my HP800s. It otherwise wouldnt clear the firewall.

whatever your modifications, this does not require you to remove the firewall.. but on the other hand you have to modify it a little.. make some cuts. I installed the PR relocated inlets kit....crazy work with the hp800 gen2. I also created two additional supports for the firewall to avoid vibrations...

What did you have to do with the PR inlets?

lots of cutout on the back of the firewall. and I had to extend the front inlet connection a little because the Hydra outlet was preventing the passage. I also removed the OEM heat shield and kept only the selenoid support... otherwise impossible to assemble. I was unable to reinstall the two vacuum tanks properly....so I only installed one but with two inlets and two outlets (I hope Google translates my message correctly)

Some people completely remove the canisters. That would not be my first choice. Seb's approach was to remove the one obstructing canister and then simply plumbed the lines from the second canister into the first. So he did not completely lose canister vacuum reserve. Make sense?

that's exactly it... actually I reduced the capacity of my vacuum reserve... but despite everything I still have one... in my case it was the best solution. if you do not install relocated inlets you will not need to move the vacuum tanks

what blow off valves do you guys use? I currently have the Turbosmart Kompact Plumb Back Kit, but with the front inlet delete, I will need to move to a single BOV.

I was looking at the HKS Super SQV4 Universal Blow Off Valve

Any suggestions are welcome.

GoFastBits SV50. Wanted something easily adjustable without an obnoxious sound, my car is already loud enough.
