well, I'm not a fan of vento-to-atmosphere blow-off valves on turbo cars, let alone on n/a cars. all that's done for is to get a gay sound, and make your car run worse.
much better to get a plumb back, pod filter, and you still get a nice, more subtle noise, plus better performance than a standard bov.
there are a lot of options for putting a bov onto an n/a car, for all the ricers out there. the most popular is an electronic one, which takes the signal from the TPS to determine when it should make the blow-off noise. I'd assume if you had a variable TPS then it could probably be made to make loud and quiet blow offs as well, depending on how hard you backed off the throttle (just like a real bov). I never looked into it, because those sort of mods to me are a huge waste of money, and would be better spent on improving performance.
but that's personal preference, and while I dont respect what ricers do, if it's what makes them think their car is improved so be it..
ps: I have no idea what sort of TPS the 4a-fc has
