This. Tried the HKS, loved the sound except that it always made me think I was getting compressor surge, even though I wasn't. Just made me paranoid so I got rid of it. As for the Cobb one, isn't it like $300?

Just do yourself a favor and purchase the new HKS Race BOV made out of aluminum internals. This way you do not have to worry about any leaks in the future.

You should just do yourself a favor and purchase the HKS Race BOV made with aluminum components/internals. It will not leak on you over time and it is a great looking mod under the hood.
