Its a direct replacement for the factory BOV with no need for adapters and sounds really nice. The reason why I'm selling is because I've changed my induction set-up with custom piping and am now running a Kompact 25m Atmospheric BOV. $260 + postage if you are interested, send me a pm. You can see a picture of it in the for sale section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its the std twin recirc bovs then no; not a ricer. If he's strapped a sheepdog or some stupid sounding bov then yes. A ricer. Bov's only hinder performance; their only purpose is emissions and smooth drive ability.Watch what occurs to the afm voltage when you run no bov and lift off the throttle.Run an atmo bov and watch it dump fuel and attempt to stall/bog the car.Myself. I run no bov; not for the dose ricer noise but for the improved throttle response and instant torque feeling when you grab that next gear at part throttle/normal driving conditions.I've tried atmo bov to feel the difference but with an afm setup the car bogs a little on gear changes and is a pain in the arse as it always tries to stall when coming to a stop.
