Default xs engineering gsr turbo kit which bov should i go with

This is my first turbo project so I have been doing as much reading as possible. However i have found xs engineering kit related information to be slim. So if there are any b18c1 out there running one of these kits please make ur self known so i can bother u later

I got a good hondata tuner here in town so im gonna let him handle the fuel managment. I was told I need a good BOV and from what i read my turbo will really apriciate it. So many out there on the market to choose from... Which bov do think would be most effecient for this application? Also mention what flange to use because from what i can tell i gotta weld one in place (aluminum flange im assuming) for the bov.

Myn sister currently has this setup on her 1999 EX Civic w/ B18C1. Excellent kit for the daily driver due to the fact it uses a GT28R Ball bearing turbo charger. She went w/ the 420hp kit but instead of hondata she decided to go with the Power FC option that was available. Much better tuning with it, so much I got rid of my Hondata to get the Power FC.

For a beginner, it's a little pricey, but we installed it, and forgot about it, and it's been 2 years, and running very strong.
