Greddy BOV would be cheaper, and it works well imo... ram horn manifold is good, but u gotta replace ur radiator to a smaller one for the manifold to fit nicely (u're lucky if u can get it to fit with the OEM radiator)

be like it is
just get cheaper autometer gauges. they may not look as cool, but function over form.

everyone and their mom has an ssqv lol. look into a tuboxs rfl (really f'in loud) :D

why not just get a cast manifold? yeah, theyre heavy and ugly, but realistically you wont see many benefits from an equal length manifold on the street. my buddies 12.1 second gsx runs a cast manifold...and its his DD (not during the winter...aem ems doesnt like cold weather :( ). his turbo is maxed, but he has to change his manifold when he upgrades to a gt35r (from his big 20g).

I hate the SSQV. I've yet to hear a BOV that sounded better than the Greddy Type-S.

i dont care really abt the sound. but the WAY the ssqv works is the reason i want to buy it, better for 15+ psi cars
