Since the stock 3SGTE on the alltrac (the engine you have) doesn't have a BPV, and the worst thing that a BOV can do is not open, then you don't have much to worry about.

That said, the knockoff is not the same level of quality as the real thing. I'm glad you got the real one.

By the way, you'll still hear it a little bit even with it routed back into the intake. smile.gif

yah i been thinking of this for awhile. the alltracs got no bpv but the mr2t with the same engine does. im thinking it has something to do with the alltrac being tmic and the mr2t being smic (which will have longer piping). maybe the turbo surge is worse with longer piping, smic and fmic, than with short tmic piping. cuz ive gotten rides on alltracs with no bpv and i dont hear the same surge on their car as oppose to my car when boosting. and yah im damn glad i got to buy a real brand new HKS SSQV..which should be coming in a day or 2!!! biggrin.gif
