I use to have it....it works really good...on stock wrx boost..it wasnt loud..cuz more of the air recirulates..turn up the boost..and its pretty decent..

is it louder then the stock bpv or is it quieter. im basically stock right now. i have some plans however. ive heard its the best recirculating bov for subys, im really just interested in something that sounds better without hurting performance. i have the typhoon intake and love it. i just want a better sound when i let off the throttle.

I dont think bov's are good for subies if you are under 20 psi.

the aps bov wont let out atmospheric all the time...you can adjust it to be sensitive you want it...it wont be louder...unless you go with higher boost..to say 18psi..get the aps bov..and then get a cobb ems and it will make it louder..

true...but the aps bov is both recirulating and atsmopheric..so it wont harm it at all..it works great I use to have one..sold it..went to stock..then got a hks ssqv for really cheap..and I have that now on there, its not the best chose. cuz it a full atmospheric makes you run lil rich inbetween shifts..which i got to say is pretty fun..flames are sweet

hahaha havent had that yet, although most drivers stay back because im such a horrible driver, im still getting owned my my 5spd swap lol. i am getting better though, now i only peel out 3/4 of the time instead of all the time, but i guess being self tought and only having driven my car maybe 10-15 times which is also the number of times ive driven stick... its not that bad.

im going to do some driveby videos tomorrow and try and get some flames on video if i can. my wideband reads between 10.2 and NUL when i shift so it should get some good results lol.
