Yeah or not.
What the heck does that mean.
Anyway the one you posted is a sard and its used and its 22 bucks just for shipping.
I know there are used bovs on ebay.
Just wondering if these were any good.
Has anyone used them?

Jaared the search isn't working
Does your car stumble when it vents to atmosphere?
How did you connect it?
Did you use the stock intercooler piping?
Can you post a pic?

umm the search this is actin crazy for me too... if you get the "stage II" one they sell on there it plusg right in.
the stage iii one is a bit bigger and im not sure what it would take to make it fit.
there is a 1" rubber hose that comes off the UIM and goes to the stock BOV, unplug that hose from the stock bov and rotate it up, then plug the new bov into that hose and hose clamp.
use the vaccume line from the stock BOV for the new BOV.
remove old BOV and plug the 1/2" hole in your T.I.D., pepboys sells a plug, or i have heard a cork works good.
The day i put mine in i plugged it with the cap from a glue stick and drove to pepboys
.
My car does not surge or hesitate after the bov vents. at the right throttle possition the turbo is making boost and and the bov is slightly open (about 1" of vaccume") and there is a very loud "turbo noise"
Its like a mix of the crazy suck noise through the filter and a highpitched "vvvvfffffffff" from the bov.
i really like it.... iv had mine for a few months and its doing good.

I have one of these and it works very well. Definitely one of the loudest(if not THE loudest) on the market and very reputable from what I've found. Its a little more though.

Well aside from being not visually appealing, i guess theyre ok. I picked up a Blitz SSBOV off ebay for $105 shipped. I got it, it was a little dirty, and I cleaned it up nice. Good deal.

Its ok I guess. I havent heard much out of it. I just got my car running today, and I couldnt boost it because it needs to be tuned. But it sounds good from what Ive heard.
