For mods, I have an upper IC pipe and an intake pipe (both from Hass Autoworks) Jay put an e-manage in it and I am sure that it is why I do not have any problems with stalling/idle. Other than that, a Hass Auto manual boost controller. This BOV is really too much for the car but thats ok It will be in place when a Garrett goes on it someday!

i have the duel port, with an injen intake, sounds great. I've put about 6000 miles on it, never had any problems or stalling/idle problems. Runs perfectly.

*sigh* This makes baby Jesus cry.

You don't buy a BOV to make noise; you buy it to hold boost more efficiently.

I'm gonna have to go with Warrtalon on this one. Why the heck would you want to upgrade your BOV just for the noise and only for the noise... no other reason? That is so incredibly ricey .

Here, go here. This suits you better, and it'll save your car, an Evo, from the damage bogging and stalling your aftermarket noise-making BOV will do: Click Here

The condecending attitudes of some members here really crack me up. Who gives a $hit if this guy wants to put a BOV just for the noise. I mean really, who gives a $hit if he paints the damn car pink with a Fast and Furious sticker on the side? It's not like anybody here is paying for any of the mods he's doing and nobody here is going to be driving it everyday. Who gives a rats ***? But to call someone a "gay noob" really shows the gheyness of some people on here.

/rant

Anyway, to answer the question.. cheapest ive seen it for is 250. Which isn't alot of money considering you are driving a $30K car and talking about doing a turbo upgrade...

Thanks MOOkiE!!!!!!!!

To each is his own

As for the "looooooooosssssser" who loves name calling..........I didn't buy this 30,000 car with turbo so I can't hear the thing. I have a turbo car and I'm proud of it and I want other people to know that........so go find that name calling rock you came out under from and go back under it!!!!!

And how people say "it's rice" well guess what.......we do have a 4banger under our EVO hoods...........

screw all the haters. have you thought about an intake, your bpv will be really loud plus your turbo's whistle will be too. I think you'll get alot more noise from an intake. a bov will only make your bov louder but an intake will make bpv+turbo louder.
