Replacement BOV
I got the one that does both.. Venting and recirculating.. Its $200 for the bov.. It hisses with a pshhh.. Not like a rattling sound i was going for but its def a show stopper! Call rrm or email them.. Im pretty sure theyd be able to help you guys with specs and more choices..
It honestly felt the same since im not really running on high psi.. the only thing between the stock is that its design to hold boost.. So if your going for performance .. Id suggest u to keep the stock.. However rrm also carries one that fully recirculates and that can hold better while boosting.. Im pretty sure the price is the same.. Maybe 50$ more
Ill get to that.. Also will be posting pics.. I just need time to organize everything.. Give me a month.. Im pretty sure id be able to start taking pics and vids outside.. Its still kinda chilly
nice feedback, just a few quick comments, i know i went the cheap route but i this 200 is a bit pricy. and are you still getting the 7.5 that the kit came with or are you running a little less. i will post pictures of my setup when i get a few free mins. mabye tomorrow before work. mine is not really loud but it cured my vanity for now. mabye sometime in the future i will go for a pricy setup but i dont see the need really. if anyone is interested in a cheap but effective BOV i can give you all the details on what i did.
Im running the same boost.. actually I forgot to add.. the BOV that I got can be adjusted.. If you want the loud and easy release.. you can just turn the knob allowing the spring to react faster.. with a softer spring release the piston can be venting air out quickly.. so you can play around with the BOV in just 3000rpm.. and if you change your mind... you would also be able to adjust it to a stiffer position allowing it to hold boost longer ...by just turning it the opposite way.. For the price.. Its worth it.. Atleast you dont have to spend anymore money trying out other blow off's.. the cheap plastic is garbage.. Although I'd also consider looking at other routes if theres a way to get it cheap and high end!
i think you may be misconceiving what that adjustment is for. do a quick google search for BOV Adjustment or BOV installation. turning it to the softest setting possible. if you make it to hard for that "loud sound" it will cause bad things to happen to your turbo. just an FYI. and i am looking forward to hearing this.

its a dualport system.. it allows it to have the play.. the hard or stiff positions allow the air to recirculate, instead of it opening the valve.. It fully supports it.. like a combination of two.. hope you like it!
