So, should i still follow the HP guide in order to have a quick daily driver? My plans are probably around 350 HP in the future.
 
So i shopped at the Dejon store and added a brand new 1g BOV, and the advanced stock MAS kit, which includes an upgrade upper IC pipe(1g flange) and an intake pipe. Do i need any other accessories to install these? like MAF adapter or anything?
 
Dejon is a very good company and they should send you what you need for the install.
 
So, if i order a 1g BOV new from dejon tools and get the leak stop kit, does it mean i can vent to the atmosphere? or just mean that i can hold more PSI?
 
2G guys buy 1G BOVs cause they are much stronger. No you can not vent to the atmosphere. You still have to recirc the BOV. The only way to vent to the atmosphere is to convert to a blow through setup. To do this you will need a GM MAF and MAFT.
 
so is the new valve easily mountable on the inner fender like they say? and is this kit worth getting. Will it add noticeable PSI? im not sure if im getting the concept of it. Is it just to prevent boost leaks at small PSI's?
 
A bov is used to release pressurized air from the intake track. When the throttle body closes, as you lift off the gas pedal, the turbo is still producing pressure for a split second. But it's enough to do damage to your turbo if it back flows, after being stopped by the now-closed throttle butterfly. The bov opens when the engine goes into vacuum in the off-throttle position. In the sense that the 1g bov is better at holding pressure, then yes, you may see a slight increase in intake pressure. But increasing pressure is not it's job, releasing pressure is what it's designed to do.

To increase pressure, you will use a boost controller, whether electric or manual. Dejon sells a couple of manual ones.

You will have no problem installing any of this stuff if you know which end of a wrench or screwdriver to use. It's all pretty intuitive. You will need to perform a boost leak test after replacing any intake components, though, to make sure everything is tight. Search the site here for that...it's easy.

If you are using your stock MAS, and you have the appropriate compressor intake pipe (CIP) from Dejon, then there's no adapter needed. If you intend to replace the filter box with a cone filter, then you need one to attach the filter to the front of the MAS. Dejon sells those, too.
