Sorry I did not elaborate... TurboXS BPV. I dont want a hybrid or a BOV w/recirc. I want a true BPV with 100% Recirc.
i'll solve all your issues with the forge.... put in the red spring !! whalla no ping ! most people tell you it is too stiff but they are wrong. VERY few cars actually get compressor surge from it. if you dont trust me just try it and see. or you can stick with the blue spring, it wont hurt. i believe it is the best valve out there for this car, period... for any price.
if you are interested i have THE 1 AND ONLY second generation forge BPV out there right now. forge is making a slight revision to it before it is released because the hood clearance is rough. on a car with a stock motor mount it will hit under the hood, even with my TRZ mount it did at first. i rotated it on the flange a little to change the height it sits at and now it is fine.
i will sell it to the first person to give me $110...shipped. the valve will retail for $160. i have a full spring kit with it as well its all there. here is a pic of it.

Hopefully this valve will be out soon. And people get some sound clips of it

Damn, why does it look larger than the 1st gen? Is it still piston-style?
When's the 2nd gen coming out??!

So if you dont like the ping then get the Turbo XS type 25 or the standard Turbo xs, they sound stock.

A black Forge BPV will probably be my first upgrade, followed by a black RPMC Turbo Inlet. Forge is quality at an affordable price, its a win-win. After that I'm not sure if I want an sri or cai, sri's sound like they get pretty annoying.
Is the RPMC inlet really that helpful? I have a cobb sri and i ordered a forge bpv I'll let you know how the sound is but the sri by itself isnt annoying to me.

The Rpmc turbo inlet makes the intake alot louder. I recommend an exhaust upgrade though, That is my next route of upgrades now. I can't even hear my stock bpv now since I have installed my turbo inlet. I'm still looking for a greddy type s though

SRI sounds louder.

That's a personal opinion, I think mine is loud enough now
What about Synapse Synchronic BOV? I have in 100% recirc. and I LOVE IT! Little to no compressor surge or flutter dump. Throttle response is quick and responsive. Boost is automatic as soon as the gas pedal is pressed. It is great. Go to youtube for videos, or to Synapse website.
Here is my MS3 w/ Cobb SRI, RPMC Turbo Inlet, Synapse Synchronic BOV

Heard a lot of fitment issues with the Synchronic, or hoses just coming off. You can see your TMIC cover being pushed up because of the BPV. Careful your hoses arn't being pinched.
