HKS Racing BOV for T51 R Kai SIngle

Anyone using this HKS Racing BOV with a T51 R KAI ?

I'm looking for a BOV that will work best with my T51 R KAI. I was thinking of getting two HKS Super Seq. BOV's and welding them to the FMIC outlet pipe close to the GReddy elbow that I am using ..but someone recommended that I use the HKS Racing BOV because it's better for high boost high volume applications.

Anyone have 1st hand experience with the T51 R KAI's and these BOV's ??

Keep in mind that the HKS Racing BOV normally LEAKS under vacuum.&nbsp On a MAP based engine control system, this is not that important...

A Tial BOV would be fine for what you need.

I always thought that the Greddy Type-R worked the best for high boost application.

It ends up being an intake vacuum leak.
