i need a large blow off valve. my hks finally crapped out (its a first gen)

if someone has a working hks ssq i could buy then i wouldnt have to change my pipe but i dont mind changing the flange if i can find a good blow off valve for a good price.

thanks,
nick

found out why my hks failed. just a heads up to anyone who has one and might have an issue of it not working...

the steel tube that goes into the housing for the vac port pushed too far in and punctured the diaphragm. it was giving me a vac leak and also was not sealing to make the bov open. until my new one comes in, i took it apart and put a piece of tape on the side of the diaphragm opposite the vac chamber. hopefully it will work at least till the new one comes in (could be anytime between this friday and next thurs)

if anyone has seen an issue with an hks, take a look at the diaphragm
