Do it right, do it once, replace it with an aftermarket that's designed to hold more boost.
Oh and no you don't need anything else.

Just because a 1G valve was designed for 20+ years of use on a daily driver doesn't mean it will not function properly at high boost when properly modded. Mitsubishi never planned a 1G DSM to crank 30+psi, so they never designed the valve to hold that much pressure.Do it right, do it once, replace it with an aftermarket that's designed to hold more boost.

Aftermarket manufacturers see guys like you coming a mile away.
I crushed mine and it was fine for a week but now it leeks
I'm still rocking the stock BOV, but if you're shooting for a bov that'll hold 40psi, bending/crushing the stock BOV *isn't* the way. The message that I posted the "do it right, do it once" to was in response to this:
I crushed mine and it was fine for a week but now it leeks


Edit: And when I start having problems with it, I'm not going to butcher it for more temporary performance. I'm going to buy a full replacement part.
So you do understand what this so called
"butchering it for more temporary performance"
Is actually doing right?
