do me a favor, and if you have a stock engine, take your new aftermarket BOV and run it over numerous times, because thats about the best thing you could do for yourself and especially your car!

On a more serious note, please seard the threads about BOVs, they do nothing but cause issues on a stock STI, if you are interested in the noise that they make, then get an intake: K&N typhoon, or SPT High flow Intake


any questions PM me, just please dont use that BOV

let me teach you young grasshopper from my mistakes...

BOV's are easy as hell to install. Its literally a take off, put on procedure (at least mine was).

But you do not need this, sell it. I set mine to run full 100% recirc for now, because the car feels sick when i use it.. haha

Now what you wanna do is look up "snorkus delete mod."
It sounds good... and gives you that BOV sound withouth BOVBullcrap.

But if you really want it on, just put it on and reset your ecu, but don't put it on 100% atmospheric...

The good thing about them is that they are easy to take off and return to the stock one.
