I am currently doing my engine build. I have FP68HTA turbo, planing to run it at it's max 27-28 psi (47lb/min according to FP). I have Dekta K272's, FP Race manifold, 8.5:1 Manleys, 3 inch exhaust system. Fuel system will be Wally 255HP > FIC 1050's, Fuelab AFPR. We have 100 octane fuel here in Europe which is similar to your 93 octane.

I have an 29x9x3 intercooler and 2.5" pipes all the way to the TB. 1G Non-turbo TB and 1G stock intake manifold. I will use 1G BOV with the Dodge Garage mod.

So I have some doubts about the intake system. The BOV, TB and Manifold to be precise. What do you guys think. Will it be enough? I have another 1G BOV. Will it benefit from using two 1G BOVs?
 
The stock intake manifold has proven to make over 600whp. Its very capable up too 60lb/min airflow IMO. Im pushing almost 40lb/min and a guy with the same setup as me dynoed right before me made 2hp more and 10lb tq more with a SMIM and cams. Im on stock cams and intake mani.
 
If you were concerned with the BOV being sufficient why not just run one larger more efficient BOV?

Well I really don't want to invest much more in that car. I want a SMIM and a nice aftermarket BOV, but I really gave so much money already and I still have to get brakes and suspension after the build.

I don't know what exactly should the specs be for the BOV. So that's why I ask the wise men here :) If I must - I will get a nice aftermarket BOV, but if the 1G is good or 2x1G are enough why wasting another $200-300
