I know this is probably in the wrong place but I just wanted to know if anybody knows how much boost a stock Evo 8 Bov can hold without leaking and is it sufficient for a 14b at 16psi?
 
yes the stock evo runs more boost then that,

A stock evo can sometimes get an VIII BOV to crack open at full boost. But it's a bigger turbo and at 19 psi. Regardless, it should hold a 14b at 16 psi just fine.
 
I don't know what it can handle at its max, but I doubt it's much more then that seeing as it's pretty similar to the 2g valve. If you want a quality one that will bolt right to the factory 2g uicp, get an Evo IX compressor bypass valve. They are metal and can handle more boost then 1g cbv's.
