the type R from Greddy is for cars with larger boost levels but I do not have any reference about the fitment...

I know I have seen several that have the type S (I plan to soon) and had to modify the flange to fit it on.

I have the type S on my car, but its not a direct fit. You have to have a steel mounting flange welded on to the s/c pipe. I bought both the flange and the type s from aieonline.com. Great prices and good service. I'm actually from MA too, if you wanna hear what the BOV sounds like let me know, I just have to take care of a shredded belt and get the car running again.

Type S is prone to leak

It won't fit without the new flange.

Thank you Veddymuch.....

the only one that will fit the stock piping is the blitz... otherwise you pretty much HAVE to buy a flange and get it welded... i custom welded mine on and so did my friend.. he has the greddy and i have the HKS ... it was only $40 to get it welded on... and soooo worth it... let me know what you end up doing... good luck
