the stock BOV is fine until you go single turbo. i havent really seen any single turbo FD's runing the stock BOV.

Okay, I guess I can't be cheap and use the stock one with my single.
I was thinking TIAL for $225

yeah...the TIAL is the most reccomended BOV. i dunno why though. don't all the BOV's do the same thing?? i personally like the BLITZ BOV, since it sounds the coolest. and the BPU and up supra guys use it, so its good for 19+ PSI of boost.

my point is, why is the TIAL more commonly reccomended than any HKS, GReddy, or Blitz??

Greddy Bov's are to small.. You have to get the race model for a decent size and that costs money..

The Tial is cheap in price and will outflow any BOV on the market...
Tial is well known for quality and craftsmanship.
