Good day.

Does anyone know of a simple kit to install that can be shipped to Canada that is affordable. I have been told that BOV for eclipse,talon etc. work fine on the esprit? Moderatly mechanicaly inclined, looks fairly straightforword with the right kit. Saw a kit on LEW, but by the time the exchange and shipping are looked after it seems a bit much although if nothing else comes up I may get it anyhow.

Thanks
Brad

Any twin piston dump valve will work on your esprit. The reason you need a twin piston one is because of the air flow meter. It prevents the car from stalling or uneven idle.
The tee piece is a simple silicone hose 60mm main (I think) to a 25mm tee. The only other pices you need is a few jubilee clips and a short length of 5mm silicone hose and 5mm plastic tee piece (from any aquarium shop or DIY) to tap into your vacuum pipe.

Cheers

i put together one from www.forgemotorsport.com that works great. it is a diaphram BOV that i plumbed back to the airbox. the silicone tee is a samco part. if you want part #s and pics of my installation, send me your email. total cost was about $230 including shipping.

I have one on my S4s and to be honest the noise drives me up the wall most of the time. If you do install, I recommend ducting it into either the airbox our out under the wheel arch ....
