Please:

http://www.evogarage.net/wiki/index.....28DC.2FBOV.29

Diverter Valve / Blow Off Valve (DC/BOV)

Do yourself a favor; kill the ricer within you now. Evo's do not respond well to BOVs. Especially if they vent 100% atmospherically. The stock IX diverter valve (aka JDM MR diverter valve) is a very capable and inexpensive solution. The IX diverter is metal and can handle 25 psi without any issue. You will experience very limited, if any drive ability issues. Partial throttle situations will be manageable and not violent.

* If you have an VIII, do yourself a favor and get a IX diverter valve.
* Don't be a ricer, unless you have an aftermarket ecu then stick with a recirculated diverter.
* Aftermarket diverters tend to have partial throttle issues and will never be as daily driving friendly as the stock IX diverter.
