Not running a BOV leads to increased turbo lag between gears and shortens the life span of the turbo.

bypass valves (NOT BOV's) are quite a bit more quiet than name-brand BOV's...I suggest the Audi TT bypass valve, made by bosch, I used that for a while...now I have a XS engineering bypass valve that was made for applications like the audi tt (1" inlet, 1" outlet). Mine's recirculated but you can still hear it between the shifts...not loud or annoying though, that's for sure. I see some videos of really high horsepower TT 350Z's and can't help but think how obnoxious the BOV sound gets....

You shouldn't need to rebuild your bottom end, if you've done any research on this forum you'll know that the stock KA bottom end is good for roughly 400HP, which is more than you are likely to build. As for the BOV situation, definitely use one, but you could always just route that sucker into your cockpit for some hilarious fun times scaring your friends(ignore my stupid antics, I'm really tired this morning). The HKS Super Sequential BOV is very quiet when run in a recirculating fashion, my friend has one on his EVO and you can hardly hear it, even though he's running 19 PSI.
