Looking for pretty much any type of BOV other than bltiz, mounted on any type of intake pipe. I just want to be able to clamp the pipe in place with silicon fittings.

I'd like to bring forth the point that the whole reason Im getting this thing is because I love the whistle of aftermarket BOV's. I personally just love hearing the chirp/whistle.
I know Supras are supposed to have recirculatory and run rich when you run atmospheric, but I plan on staying stock boost levels or close to it, and just using my car as a snappy daily driver. The only difference performance-wise is that my car should run rish for just the brief moment I let off the gas. I really just want the sound, as ricer as that may. *had to put in that little disclaimer before the bitching started.
How loud is that one you got eric?

I gotta say man, the supra that i had and Eric had had this done to itand its a pain in the ass having to start it back up after every time you let off the throttle. It doesnt just run rich for a second or two, it will run like ass for 15-30 seconds after you let off the gas. Same thing with dsm's. I would highly advise against this. And i think Eric will back me up on this as well.

haha yeah - i owned the supra for 3 hours before i had a recirculation pipe fabricated and working. Made the car run MUCH better! If you REALLY want the sound, get a MAF-T and do it right. Also honestly, the Supra got the worst gas mileage out of any car I have ever owned while it was venting, and it was only on 9psi.
Do it right, or don't do it. 1g BOV's are not all that loud, but they are noticable :)

The reason that the cars run like shit is actually 2 fold, most people grasp the first part but have no clue about the second part.
First yes the car will run rich when you let off the gas because air that has already been counted by the MAF is released to the atmosphere yet gas for that air was already added so it causes the car to run rich for a sec.
Second and this is what most people don't grasp. The BoV opens under vacuum and is'nt a one way valve, after the boost is let out the valve is still open and allows the car to suck in air thru the BoV and causes a lean running condition and that's actually what causes the car to stall. You can actually engineer a little flap to make it one way and then your car won't stall and will only run rich for a sec.
