blough Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 I have been told not to buy an aftermarket BOV because they leak. I love the sound though. What are you guys running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianEarlSpilner Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Then get a car that isn't maf based. Seriously tho, they aren't good for the car. Runs rich on ups hits as your expelling metered air into the atmosphere. Get an adjustable bypass valve if you really need to (like GFB bpv) hear some noise, or go full on speed density tuning and do whatever u wish. Search this forum and it's been answered thousands of times already.... Handy search method for google-- (enter search topic)site:legacygt.com All sarcasm aside I like the sound as well. The adjustable bpv/bov allows you to get some of the noise without all the negative side affects. I run a Go Fast Bits Respons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtea Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Nah, Unless you run more then 18psi of boost then maybe. I went through two stockers and the bought a used aftermarket which did not leak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenfamily Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Hopefully you're doing more research. The two schools of thought: - Unabomber - Davenow What it comes down to: - What are your goals and will this part lead you there? - Would you be better off getting something now with more bang for the buck?

quick4dr Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 NO. Subaru = MAf based tune, you need to Recirc to keep things happy. You can vent up to 50% with out most problems arising. However I would stick with a recirc valve rather than VTA. or get a Response valve and dial it in to your liking, however more than 50% is stupid. and can get dangerous on the tune.

blough Posted December 13, 2015 Author Share Posted December 13, 2015 I appreciate the advice. Looks like im going to stick with stock and try a GFB somewhere down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMonaLisa Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Unless your stock valve is leaking there is no significant benefit to upgrade it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
