Default what BOV are you using for 500whp+ or 20-30psi STREET cars?

just re-doing all my piping do i figured i would get an idea of what you guys would recommend on bloe off valve, had a turbonetics godzilla before, but it started leaking for some reason, also this will probably be driven on the street quite a bit since i have decided to sell everything else i own and dump my money into this car. thanks

I have a hks super sequential BOV on my 483 hp integra and it hold fine at 28 pounds. Also, is pretty sensative under low boost. Good for street use.

But if i had it to do again, i would definetely go with the tial 50 mm. I had the hks laying around, otherwise it would have that tial on it.

for a street car you want a bov to relive the turbo after you let off the throttle thats the hole point of them..... if your building a drag car and it really doesnt need one but for a street car you NEED one if you want the turbo to last

i have that same intercooler and turbo but i run 2 1/2" piping and my power and spool is awesome! 3" chargepipes are overkill imo
