aye... I hear mine 50% louder then before, and after I got the bigger fmic and AMS pipe, there's lots of turbine spool sound under the hood, I could hear it even with the radio on at mid-level volume

plus I think AMS recommended to upgrade to the metal cuz the plastic one tends to be leaky (maybe after you're raise boost?)

Also if you have some Evo friends ask them for one, they might give it off cheaper or even give it to you for free!

The EVO 8 BOVs fit as well? I thought it was just the 9s and 10s, but I guess it wouldn't make much sense to change from 8 to 9.

The computer is expecting that extra "vented" air to be blown back into the intake, and adjusts fuel accordingly. By using a VTA valve, you're giving the engine less air than it's expecting (and making it run rich).

http://www.lancershop.com/customer/p...&cat=27&page=1
for $129.95
http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/evo/evo_bov.htm (near the bottom of the page)
for $130.00

these are the cheapest I have found outside of ebay or here in the forums, you can post a Wanted To Buy (WTB) ad in the EVO IX or EVO X section
