Bov?
Okay looking for a new BOV as my cheapo ebay one is sticking despite oiling. Looking for any recommendations.
Don't say the bosch one as I used to run one and I liked it a lot for under 10-12psi, but above that I think it leaks a bit. Need something more stout for 14+.
I was thinking about the GFB one that FM used to carry, but I've also read a bunch of reviews that over time it sticks as well.
Thinking HKS SQV, but that one is $$$. Any others?

I heard what Jefe said- but I haven't got my boost over 13psi yet.
I have this one bookmarked because I read somewhere that it worked well for higher boost and being a chinese unit.
I miss my IS.

my all metal bosch dumps and was loud- but I picked up a an air filter for it and it did a good job of muffling the noise while keeping the air clean off boost

I assume this has to do with a lack of precision and excessive tolerance causing binding of the piston and cylinder- understandable when cheap enters the equation. Glad I mentioned it.
