For you information there is no BOV on a stock 1G-GTE either, stock the boost was persumably too low for toyota to put one on.
Whilst having one is a good idea for the health and wellbeing of the stock turbos, you don't need to put on an atmospheric (sp) BOV. You can use a plumb back set up which in short vents the air back into the intake an you don't get as noticable sound at low boost levels.
As for rebuilding a 120rwkw 1G-GE, whilst yes it is possible, a rebuild of a 1G is an expensive exercise as performance parts aren't really available off the shelf and usually have to be custom made. and stock parts....well if you think the insurance companies bend you over wait until you visit toyota for parts. 
Unless you really want to rebuild a 1G your best bet would be to go to an importer and buy a 1G-GTE for $750 and drop that in. and leave it stock. this will yield somewhere around the 120rwkw you desire.
