New Mods Help/Advice

Ok so I saved a couple hundred bucks and I am looking for a new BOV and MBC. I for sure am getting the HALLMAN MBC with CP controller. For BOV I heard the HKS sucks for our cars but I like the fact thats its pull type and cant leak under any amount of boost and thats what im looking for. I dont want something im gonna replace after im boosting more then 25psi.... So should I just get the HKS kit from AMS for 300$ or the kit from STIKILLER for 400$. The STIKILLER kit comes with the HKS intercooler pipe to bolt the BOV on. Can someone tell me what all the AMS kit comes with thanks alot ne info / advice would be appreciated.

+1, put the money into at SS o2 housing, some porting, an intake pipe, or a tune (if you don't have one already!)

You already have an MBC according to your signature. Why get a different one? I'd stay stock on the bov if I were you.
