Intake wise- I felt like I lost power with all the intakes I tried. Now I'm back to stock with the K&N dopin- and my car is faster then it ever has been.

I take it, you are pretty happy with it.

^^ No, you can only VTA that BOV. People with that bov usually have turbo upgrades and some kind of stand alone in order to vent it.

APS-no problem for me. I switched from HKS VTA to APS. No flutter, no stall, descent sound

I never really had a problem with my vta with the hks valve. U don't even have to mess with the screw. Nothing really to adjust with the hks one.

you're not suppose to adjust the hks... i think conceptually, the hks is the best design, you should put it back on and try putting the screw on the least tight option and then maybe give it a few turns, it's only suppose to be tight enough to counter vacuum pressure at idle.

it'll hold all the boost you want... and if you need to vent more than 23 or so psi or whatever the limit is... you just get two (the only bov by design that can do this! (except for tha turboxs or whichever one that copied that design).

For those who tried out a few BOV did you lose power (butt-dyno wise) depending on the bov. I have an turbo xs rfl and 1g bov and it makes a difference when using the turbo rfl vs the 1g but the driveability with the 1g is 100% better.
