Are you always going to be running that amount of boost...never more?

You might as well get the Greddy Type R BOV.

i tried a greddy BOV on my FC , i was running 12psi but i couldnt get the car to idle for crap with it on and it would keep dieing on me. but for the whole time i ran the SSQV. i had no problems with it. onlything is that its loud as fugg.

thanks guys. i am probably am going to get the HKS but if i ever decided to run it back into the intake, how would i do it? there isnt an end to connect to. anyways i probably am going to vent it into the atmoshpere tho. people are sayin that it will make the car difficult to drive because it will cause a rich condition when letting off the throttle. is there any bad side effects besides some flames when venting into the air? thanks for the help guys and merry christmas

Both will work.
A GReddy Type-R BOV is overkill in this application.
