Turbosmart Description: Turbosmart Mitsubishi Evo VI-X/Ralliart Colt BOV Dual Port Red
HKS Highest Discount Description: HKS 08+ Evo 10 SSQV3 BOV kit

Your car came stock with a BOV and it runs fine now doesn't it? Do you plan on venting to the atmosphere? Thats what will cause problems. If you plan on recirc then my choice would be HKS. If you plan to vent then I might choose the Turbosmart just for ease of switching it to atmosphere.

Is neither an acceptable answer? I'd personally either go for the Cobb BPV or the Synapse DV...but I care more about function than sound.

Most tuners will agree with Stock BPV is the best for your car. Also, they will suggest a tune with a aftermarket BOV to compensate for $hitty idling. If you are stuck on getting a BOV, get one that scares little children when you drive by....
