No the flanges are not the same. I had my pipes custom built with the proper flanges to accept the HKS product. Absolutely nothing wrong with the Tail Brand at all, does the job very well and its made in the USA. But for my taste, nothing comes even close to the beautiful sound of an HKS BOV. I still smile really big every time I hear a full boost release. Boost is what dreams are made of :happydance:

I wonder if you can just make a adapter and not have to remanufactor the entire pipe

LOL, I converted you! The HKS BOV's really do sound that dam good. My buddy has a Tial BOV, on his EVO. It's worked great with no issues for almost 6 years which means at least one real life example of Tial lasting. Another bud with a HKS BOV on his Supra @ 22psi, its also had not issue in the past 8 years hes had it. Might want to find out how to maintenance these bad boys. Maybe oil the seals and moving parts, I have no clue.

Edit: got to have that purple attachment lol.

and to the OP: Just to clarify, I was running one of the older models, probably version 1, with the solid outer housing (no fins).

I also ran with the purple insert, didn't get to try the gold.

The newer model version is probably better, but I'm still pleased with my Synapse for the time being.
