Correct me if I am wrong
Blitz Supercharger that designed for bB is for automatic setup
There is no stick shift bB in Japan...
And the automatic tranny they used on bB is probably similar but different than the xB here cause the shifter is on the steering wheel colum in Japan
Anyways... I still have a big "?" if the Blitz Supercharger will work properly in the US model... We will see
Compare to Greddy, HKS, Apexi and Blitz... I don't know...
I would put Blitz last if I am doing a ranking here
Just for my past experience on Blitz product for my WRX and all my friends' WXRs
Talking about the BOV... I have a HKS which is pretty loud and installation is like 10 minutes. And it took me almost 1 hour to install the Blitz BOV on my friend's car because you need to do some minor drilling otherwise it woun't fit. And my brother's Blitz SUS Filter sucking dirt like crazy... I had Blitz Turbo Timer before and with same price at the time Greddy Turo Timer has lot more functions... So ended up changing to Greddy
Blitz was a very reputable company when they used to work on F1 race cars... But I dunno... Seems like they are not big enough to actually spend money and time for the US market
I know Greddy is comming out with a Turbo kit which will retail around $2000
And might be street legal too... That is probably something I will go for and you can probably install the turbo at your own garage.

Agreed. Blitz does make some bad ___ parts if your willing to shell out the cash. I had a blitz BOV on my dsm for a while and that thing sucked ___. It would leak horribly and it didn't have a way to recirculate the air being released. That would causes rich conditions between shifts.. and oh nevermind.. you get what I'm saying..
