IX bov w/ a 35r?
It will not hold boost. I have the APS twin vent on my 6265 and it's not holding boost as well as it should imo. I would say try the Synapse Synchronic BOV. I plan on switching over to this BOV. It can be recirculated and supposedly is the best in the market. It's $300 bucks tho. You can always go with the tried and true Tial BOV, but seeing as you are still on the stock ecu, your car will probably run like crap since it cannot be recirculated. Forge RS supposedly makes a good BOV as well. Searching the forums on what good BOVs are out there would probably help you here.
yea ditch the stock BOV... I was running the stock IX bov and it wouldnt hold boost at all.... and this is on a FP Red tuned to 22psi...
I made the switch to a synapse syncronic... It picked up 30hp and 5psi of boost before 3,000rpm, just from the bov alone...

A bov doesnt really "add" power. Its just actually allowing all of the power to be there rather than losing X% of your power through a leaking bov. So you picked that new found power up thru the new bov being a stronger, more efficient piece that doesnt leak off your boost.
Im not questioning your intelligence and dont think Im trying to belittle what you said as wrong, just clarifying that for anyone who may read this and think that a bov is a power adding part. Well see 300 threads asking, what bov should I get thatll add me 220whp? lol.

way to have a logical post, that didn't have 1 thing to do with the OP. That would be me saying to you, oh you bought an MR, what a pile of crap transmission that is..... Good God, everyone is different, that is the kit he wanted so leave it be....
I would run a tial but thats just me and a few others aparently

^ thanks, this is more of a test to see if Id like to have a big turbo really. I always had more of green/red plan. This was cheap, Ill try it out and if I like it I can always upgrade down the line.
---But on another note... Any intercooler recommendations? Intake kits?
Again, any help would be great! Thanks so far!
