If it’s a replacement recirculating valve, I don’t see why it would be a bad thing. Do it up and let us all know? :p Wonder if it would change the sound of the induction. Also it could be stronger then the OEM one.

I’m looking in to this. Because a BOV would not be a good thing for our cars. Did not know AEM had one

I think the OEM BPV works just fine, there are exactly ZERO reported issues of failure. Why not spend that $180 on something worthwhile?
Some people want the sounds that come with a turbocharged vehicle, I know I wouldn't mind spending some money to get some sound out of the turbo. If the BOV didn't have negative effects I would buy one. Maybe someone will take the plunge and try this one out.

Buy an intake and you will hear the turbo noises. Make sure it has a properly positioned MAF sensor such as the PRL designs.

I bought just because I’m waiting on some more $$$ for the Hondata etc.

And I’m not buying it because of the “sound” lol!!!

But I do get what you are saying tough

Also got it cheaper I negotiated with them

If you aren't buying for sound, then why?

If you are waiting for $$$ for Hondata, then why waste $180 on this...especially if not for the sound? There is no other reason I can think of, and more/better 'sound' isn't a guarantee.

:) well to tell you the truth I want to test it out lol!!!
Admirable. And what do you intend to do datalogging with so that you have actual verification of such testing?
