I will be using a 1st gen BOV open atmosphere at about 8.5-9psi and I know this is kinda stupid but how do all you guys' KA-T's sound with it on?

Offtopic.... why in gods name did you weld on your recirculation pipe? and to run it all across the engine bay from the charge pipe?!

Why wouldn't you weld the recirculation pipe? From what I have read you want the BOV as close to the throttle plate as possible, so that's where I put it.

*shrugs*, I just wouldnt do it, but thats my taste i guess. I love everything else about your car, so I guess I will let my opinion slide on this one. ;)
