OK, I have come to the conclusion that you truly get what you pay for. That's why I am almost positive I am going with the Tial BOV for $240 shipped. Are there any suggestions for another comapny's BOV or someone who has something bad to say about the Tial model. And yes I have read past BOV threads.
Thanks in Advance

my opinion:
a BOV is a BOV. it's not a crucial be-all and end-all part of a setup, and it's a pretty simple part, so it would be tough to make a bad one. i'm using a DSM BOV and it works great. if it fails for some reason, so i'll get some compressor surge once or twice before i replace it. point is, your engine won't blow because of a faulty bov. plus i like the sound of the dsm.
now a w/g or fuel pump, on the other hand, they could seriously mess you up if they fail. that's where you don't want to cheap out.
ps. if you still get the tial bov, don't pay retail! who does that anymore?

check out BLITZ DD..... I have one and I like how it sounds...even on 7 PSI...it sounds nice.......
If you read the past posts.....you probably visited the site with blow-off valve sounds that someone posted in one of them
BLITZ will run you $180 new on ebay
I bought mine for $220 new and it had a piece of 2" aluminum pipe with a flange welded on to it already....wchich makes the install a little easier because you don't have to go anywhere to get the flange welded on to yourcharge pipe.......but I still went with 2.5" piping so it was a waste of money....... If you'll go with 2" piping and decide to go with blitz DD........IM me and I'll send you the pipe, just pay shipping..

I would Suggest the Sard R2D2 BOV, it has a very unique sound that most video games use for the bov sound.
I have an HKS Super-sequential that works great and sounds good. I would vote against the greddy-type S because I use to have it and the seals went bad on it.

Just my 2 psi
What about the Apex-i, I am kinda leaning toward it. I have heard good things. And it's sound is three-way adjustable too, so you can actually daily drive in peace.
