Well you will need to have the flange weldded to any of the intake piping, then you mount it, and run some vacuum lines.

Well Since you have to have the flange weldded...might as well just have the same guy install the whole thing for you.

I am not sure how much it would cost.

I don’t know the price difference but I would do the K&N typhoon intake. I can hear my turbo great since I put that on. And that you can probably do your self.

1. Turbo XS brand leaks like crazy, do not buy it.

2. Have someone install it. Should anywhere from $50-$150 for the install. Mine was around $60 on my 1999 s70 awd.

I bought it cheap a TurboXS Type H-RFL, that is how I know they suck. That is why I sold it long time ago and went without a BOV.

It was cool for awhile, then it got old.

I'd go with HKS SQV or a TIAL.
