Cause all the srt-4 owners have them and he wants to fit in. The stock BOV work fine u dont need to upgrade them. Fix/replace some other stuff first before u replace something you dont need to.

alot of people have the hks... i stuck with blitz dual drive... i love it... its simple... real easy to adjust the spring n such... but really don't, buy a blow off valve just for the sound... if i were you, id spend the money on all the maintenance first... my first mod after maintenance was a downpipe....

any reputable brand will work fine. (HKS, Greddy, Blitz, SARD, Apexi, etc..) its more of the style of your preference. sounds may vary, but if you don't know what you want, just get whichever brand's design you think looks good. make sure you get a rx-7 kit version or something easy to install if your running stock turbos

I agree that this is a meaningless thing to do (changing the blow-off valve) but I also agree with the "do what you want to your car" idea.
From various threads, there are pros and cons of each one. Do a little searching around and you can find some good info.
