What turbo are you running? If you're using the stock turbo the Type-S will work fine, but if you plan on running a big turbo with alot of boost you should go with the Type-R.

Greddy makes a kit for the Type-S that makes the installation with the stock IC easy. If you have a front mount IC you can just buy the appropriate flange--steel or aluminum--and have it welded to your piping.

the turbo is completely stock as is the rest of the car the only reason that im looking at a new BOV is that a buddy of mine is selling it for cheap. will the type R fit the stock turbo?

On a stock car you are gonna have to get an aluminum flange and weld the flange onto the piping directly on the intercooler. You can also weld a steel flange on the piping right after the turbo. If thats the only BOv you can get then dont bother. The Type R BOV is more for race applications. Or, Break down and buy a kit. (STAY AWAY FROM THE APEXI KIT, THEY SUCK)
