My friends selling me a evo IX bov, i have a eight and reading from the forums everyone says that I should replace mine with a IX, hold more boost ect... other then purchasing other bov's.

Should I buy it? or should i go with another bov?

and how much would you purchase it for max? its 35 dollars good deal?

is it the steel bov ?? if it is go for it .

if its the plastic than dont bother.

the IX bov is definately worth the $35 for a simple upgrade.. but it depends on what year VIII you have i think, some have the crappy plastic bov..03-04 i think, but the 05 mr have the metal bov which will hold boost better...so in short, buy it

If you don't wanna buy it, i'll buy it for $35!!!!!!

i'll pm you if i don't buy it and ask my friend if he'll ship it out for 35 plus shipping, it has 1200 miles GSR not the MR's not sure if there was a difference

also on the evo ix it doesnt matter if it is on an mr, all ix's the jap evo's and the 05 mr's all have the same metal dv

yes go for the mod is it better than the one you have if you have the plastic one. i would have gave mine away to a friend for a price like that......

i got my old one laying around, i wouldnt you it though unless you never want to raise the boost.

i swapped out my 04 plastic for the mr bov, much better when it comes to holding boost. if you do plan to hit higher boost, you might still wanna look into an aftermarket.

No, all 03-05s had the plastic BOV. 05 MRs were no different - only IXs got the metal BOV in the US.
