What's on the car now?

If you are still running a maf then you need a bov that recirculates back into the intake. A stock Evo 9 bypass valve would work fine at your current power level.

If you are running on a speed density tune then you can run a vent to atmosphere bov like a Tial.

what if you use a vent to atmosphere bov when running a maf? will it effect anything?

There are only two I recommend for Evos:
1. Cobb XLE BPV
2. Synapse DV

^^what he said. I'm running the Synapse DV and it is pure awesome. No adjusting, holds boost solid and releases perfectly.

x2, I have a Synapse dv also. Runs perfect and will still hold a fairly high amount of boost when you decide to go that route.

374hp with an fp black? Am I the only one who noticed that? How many pounds are you running?
