I know a lot of people who have this installed in their Evos.

Here are some things to consider.

1. No stalling or boggiing with this installed. I believe WORKS presets it to a 50% vta, 50% recirc.
2. Tunable sound - go stealth or announce to innocent bystanders that you've got a turbo car.
3. Seals better than the stock blow off valve.

BUT, seems to work with the stock airbox and inlet setup. Some customers that have aftermarket intakes are reporting bogging problems.

So if you keep the stock intake, things will be just fine (and you get to keep your low end torque!).

I've not personally witnessed any issues with the Xede and GFB BOV and I have never heard of anyone reporting an issue with it. Most problems with the GFB BOV occur when you change to a different intake.
