I'd have to vote for either the stock metal dv or a similar style one (i.e. Tomei). Time and time again these have proven they work well and avoid many of the problems introduced by other types of dv/bovs.

Stick with stock DV if you like your car running right.

Save the $300 for some real mods.

I bet he has an 05 with ACD.

In that case, upgrade to the Evo IX metal DV from the plastic one on the VIII.

Stock metal:

Either is a solid choice.
