The stock metal valve for a daily driver. I've heard it also called a diverter valve when it's recirculated.

Stock metal BOV should be good for about 25psi. Power is going to be a matter of tune, mods, etc. I have a IX BOV on my 05 VIII now because I didn't want to push the limit with the stock plastic one. I had an HKS SSQV with recirc kit and I was very disappointed. I now have a Synapse Synchronic (not cheap) BOV now with recirc kit but I have to put a different UICP to install it. Once I do I will let you know what I think.

Different people have different experiences with different parts so you will get different opinions. I have also heard good things about the APS unit, also the Forge unit. Hey jktripp how long have you been running yours? Glad to hear you like it though.

Tile also makes one that came out recently that I have heard good things about. The stock for DD most guys will tell you is the most consistant though.
