Default Would this work?

Hello, I am getting ready to boost my d16 for the first time, I have bought the greddy kit and some other items but now I need a blow off valve. I am young and I live on my own so I am on a budget. I was looking around ebay and I found this
http://cgi.msn.ebay.com/ebaymo...27137 Do you think it would work ok? Or should I just wait it out and buy something with a little more quality? I know that a blow off valve is a pretty simple device thats the only reason I am going to consider this one at all.

Sure, why not.
You could also get a bosch bov from your local auto parts store for about $35.

Yeah, it's a cheap alternative. I've been using one for about 4 years now, works fine.

That's because the bosch is an OEM part, it may not be sexy, but it's engineered to last the life of the car... naw'mean.

My Bosch worked great! It isn't as bling bling or stunna as other BOV's but I enjoyed it. Stealth too
