Boy do I have some good suggestions. Well pretty much just one. Its called searching.

Or you could just run the stock "bov's" cause they are plenty good.

As far as boost controller, profec B.

I agree buy a good electronic boost controller. As far as bov there is only one on the primary so if you wish you may replace that one, but the one on the secondary should not be removed if you are still running the twins in seq. mode. Also if you dont have any hard piping to weld a bov bung to it just looks tacky, but thats just my 2 cents.

I don't recommend an electronic boost controller unless you expect to need that kind of adjustability in the future. It's fine to start with a manual boost controller for much less money.

Skip the BOV. Just unplug the stock one from the airbox if you need noise to impress the girls.

Stock BOV is fine for stock twins.

As far as a BOV i use the Blitz SBC-id and love it.
