What bov is this? **pic**

[iBoostDSM]

I got this bov when I got the car, I'm no longer running it anymore. I'm not sure what it is though. It looks like a combo of a 1g and 2g. Is it some sort of evo bov?
Thanks for any help

That's not an Evo 8 is it? I used to have one and it does look similar.


EDIT: I was right.

Thank you very much I thought I saw one but it looked a little different.

Anyone know how good these are compared to a 1g?

1G is better. No questions.

Here is an article that compares the 2G to the Evo 8.

Ok thanks for the help.

1G is better. No questions.

...or you can use the Evo IX BOV which combines the best features of the 1G valve with the fitment of the 2G valve:

If you use the OEM UICP... and what sane DSMer would do that?

I had bought one of these BOVs years ago after I had upgraded my UICP (with a Brode BTW!). I was going to try to remove the bottom section of the valve and have a customized flange made to use it in the 2G, but it wasn't worth the hassle IMO.

That OEM plastic P.O.S. upper pipe was holding upwards of 22psi last year on TSiTuner23's FWD TSi after ditching the stock plastic BOV which was basically a wastegate.
