Stock BOV vs HKS SSQV?

Heya folks,

Just a quick question... How does the stock BOV hold up with increased boost? I've had the plastic stock BOV's fail on my other car from running more boost. I happen to have a spare HKS SSQV BOV and I was wondering if it was worth installing. I'd do it as a recirc and not vent to atmosphere. I think someone sells the hoose/clamp kit for this, right?

TIA...

I could have that BOV for you!

Or buy it from for cheap.

BOV makes the EVo sad and stall. I think you have to do some adjustment on it, according to people who's got it.

You should check out the turbo section. They'll have your answer.

Now about that BOV...

Doh, I decided not to bother with the HKS and splashed out on a GFB adjustable unit from The Works guys. I love that place... a candy store of EVOs....
