I have a Tial BOV on both my TA and 335i. I'll be getting another TIAL for my 135i. It's not that it's better than other brands, but it's just personal preference to me and it's a quality BOV.

RPS makes a budget TiAL knockoff BOV for $100 shipped. Nice piece, that's what I'm getting.

Cool man, I hope that is true, I have a raceport as well that is going into this ride. To the op, I'd just keep it all procharger since they offer the big red that everybody speaks good of.

I'm not sure if it is or not, but the RPS ones come with a 1 year warranty, and they've never had one sent back for warranty.

Can you post the link to the ebay one?

Actually the only ones I see now are only in china so shipping puts them right up there with the rps. I ran one for years on my busa without issue but looks like ill be getting an rps also now.

Oh ok, yeah cause I looked and those were the only ones I found as well. Also, if you're buying from RPS, type in code 0001 at checkout and you get 10% off.

JGS, Tial and Turbosmart. These are your popular and most reliable units.

JGS or Tial. The new RPS looks pretty slick.

I bought emusa stuff from ebay and disassembled it. Going to run it on the V as soon as I have enough time to put my kit together (I keep saying that and need to get off my *** and just do it already)
