so basically $172 shipped. i'm always skeptical of the quality, r&d, and customer service behind knockoffs. i'd rather pony up the extra $30 and get the real thing and have the peace of mind.

I always am haunted by things that i buy for the saying "you get what you pay for" so you might get a great product for a cheap price or.... you could have wasted 162 dollars.

you gotta be careful w/ carparts on ebay ..

like someone mentioned, cullen at **********.com has really good prices for namebrand products.

and, on a side not, i really like my turboxs rfl.

 

[CChris704]

does your rfl give you a clean sound or is it still "turkeyish." Yeah I'd definatley hit up ********** they seem to have some of the best prices around. if not, maybe even ebay a type-s but it'd be worth spending the extra money for a reputable BOV.

Thanks for the input guys, the extra money really isn't a big deal, I just really want to install a BOV but don't really want the hassle of check engine lights etc, been through that previously on my Celica.

So that's all I am aiming for.

^^ go to post #3, i'm #21 on strikers list. dl the drive by clip. i think it sounds clean. the quality of the clip is low bc it was taken on my digital camera. that was also before i put on my apex pipe. i should send striker the new vids ..

i haven't really experienced any hassle since i installed my bov and hardpipes. i run the dual setup, so on occasion, if i drop it into neutral from high rpms, it likes to dip real low.
