I have stages 3 and 4 already planned out and waiting to go on the site. I just have to get TheSpeedFactor to post 'em up with prices. If you are interested, PM me, or give them a call directly tomorrow morning between 10-6, and you can get what you need.

EVOLVEU, hah, I don't get a %, so I can't toss any your way. I do reap the benefits of sponsorship, though.

They always want to know what car you have so they can look it up, but you have to tell them to specifically look for NGK BPR7ES. At Advanced Auto, the store part number is #2023. I know, because I get them all the time. Btw, I just bought two 10-packs of BR8ES for $28 total after tax.

Yes, always come to us first before doing anything. I already gave you a lot of advice that you need to follow. It is VERY UNFORTUNATE that you trashed your stock intake and stock BOV. Did you just throw them away? The stock BOV was _NOT_ part of the stock intake, so I don't know why that got thrown away. Please, whatever you do from now on, NEVER throw away your stock parts. Seriously, sell that BOV and the HKS EIDS, then get the parts at this link:

I went on the site and see what you are talking about. I was curious about the Turbosmart BOV. I like the sound of the atmospheric BOV but understand the EVO VIII needs the re-circulating? I know I got the TXS BOV and it is atmospheric and thats why the shop put the HKS EIDS. I know you previously stated the Forged BOV, but that is only re-circulating....so what do you suggest?

I suggest the Forge RS always, because it is fully recirculating. That's what you want - there is no reason to get a BOV just because it's VTA. It's detrimental to the car, and the HKS EIDS is just a band-aid; it does not remedy the real problem, but rather masks it. The Forge will make PLENTY of noise in combination with your intake, so that is of no concern. Frankly, I am annoyed by how much noise my car makes (spooling and blow-off) now that I have my Buschur cone filter. I loved the smooth quietness of the stock airbox, but I'm now at power levels where at least a cone filter was becoming necessary. Since you have the AEM already, the Forge RS even in full recirculation mode will be plenty loud. It also is adjustable, which helps for dialing it in exactly how you want it and for holding mega boost if you ever want to use race gas or alky.

The parts in my stages above are exactly what I recommend. Whatever you find for yourself elsewhere on the website is not what I recommend most likely.
