Chargepipe Flange Adapter?

Does anyone know of an adapter that will let me put the HKS BOV on my chargepipe that currently has the synapse installed? I've seen adapters that let me run a synapse on an HKS flange, so I'm wondering if there is an opposite adapter.


I like the synapse a lot, but I ran it on my last car. I'd like to switch to the HKS just to see how I feel about it.

My one shameless bump. I'm guessing this product doesn't exist? Once you go synapse you don't go back?

I did check ebay. I can only find adapters to let me use synapse BOV on a HKS flange. My chargepipe has a synapse flange and a synapse BOV.

Taking it to a competent welder/fabricator to have the old flange removed and new one put on may not be super expensive. More than a $20 adapter for sure, but far less than a new CP, or even what you spent on an HKS BOV. Can't hurt to try.

Or you could trade with someone.
