tc-guy hell yeah man hmm either one looks good, ok since there fully atmo when your driving in full boost and it blows off, it will kinds like wanna stall when you shift but it wont, its only becuase the mass air flow sensor, since your letting all the air out its catching any air lol, but it wont hurt nothing thats what happen with me and the rfl but still sounded bad as* and still held boost so if it were me man go for it

well a little update. soo after having this bov this whole time i ran into a problem. the turbo xs was leaking vac. and causing a cel. i guess the piston type thing was rubbing against the wall and started letting air in. everytime i boosted real quick and come to a stop it would throw it or just sittin in traffic would throw it. soo last pay check i bought me a hks and love it. worth every dollar. ooh also with the turbo xs i was losing boost and having rough idle. so try not to use the turbo xs. fork out a little more doe and get a hks. it holds all my boost and feels awsome.

very nice good guy! I love mine also. I do like how you have the bov on the top like that, may do the same to my car. Ill look into making a aluminum s/c to throttle body piece with a bov flange on it.
