What aftermarket BOV works best for EVO?

I am currently awaiting delivery of a 2005 MR edition EVO. When I learned that the MR is still going to come with the plastic BOV I was immediately dissapointed. This is going to be my first EVO so I am not familiar with what parts work best with the the EVO's. Please if anyone has any thoughts or comments let me know... (Judged upon performance, boost leakage, installation, and sound)

Thanks

You can get the JDM metal BOV and put it on if you want to keep it stock, many people recomend the Greddy Type-S w/ recerculate kit

I have the TurboXS RFL and it runs great. It is a VTA type but has never made my car stall. Best of all, it is "Really F'in Loud"! Bought it from evo8.com 817.605.3333 for $135.00 out the door. That price even included the mounting kit. If you call, ask for David.

I highly recommend the HKS SSQ BOV.

Here's why:
1) IT will not leak!!!! Ever. The more boost you run, the tighter it gets.
2) It's sequential, meaning it blows or flutters at low boost, and really screams at high boost. You can even change the insert for sound prefernces.
3) It's HKS, regarded high in quality and rarity.
4) you can buy the recirc kit or VTA using the HKS EIDS.
