the loudest of course … get a HKS SSQV type w00t … it “demands” street cred but of course they are only for highly modified cars and not recommended for stock vehicles [http://www.importconcern.ca/parts/list.php?cat\_id=5](http://www.importconcern.ca/parts/list.php?cat_id=5) ---

what bov you choose i would recomend to recirculate it, all you need is a flange to mount the bov on and a reciradapter which will allow you run a line back to ur intake ---

You dont need a size, You get a BOV…then you get a flange…then you weld the flange to the intercooler pipe…then you bolt/clip the BOV onto that flange…then you hook up a vacuum line…then you drive… ---

i think they were asking for a wastegate size,([http://www.greddy.com/products/display/?Category=turbo&SubCategory=19](http://www.greddy.com/products/display/?Category=turbo&SubCategory=19)) but your car is internally gated, so tell those guys they are retards lol. make sure you get the right flange for the peice you are welding it onto, ie - FMIC aluminum piping, you’ll need aluminum flange. if its going onto the stock hot pipe, which assuming it is, get a steel one!! i know it sounds kinda of self explanatory but i see it alllllllll the time a shop will sell someone the wrong flange just to make a few bucks, and then the dumbass who didnt think about it has to spend another 40 bucks for a new flange. ANd you cant run a type r BOV, it doesnt open until 1bar…usually for cars making over 300hp, which a stock sr is not even close to… my $.02 ---
