Yeah Cheers Lads, I Most likely will, Its Only 150 quid, see what happens with it
Seems a little silly to buy a performance car and make it go slower fitting a BoV? the problems don;t typically manifest themselves straight away, people then assume all is OK and a few weeks doen the line the cars performance is down etc.
Robdon on here has tried more DV's than I have had hot dinners and although some have been better than others I think he'd probably recommend something like the Forge Split-R over a normal BoV.
Can I take it your car isn't remapped? this will be the the best way to get louder sounds from the car, more boost, more pressure, more intake sounds etc etc
Good cheap mod's also include;-
Dog Bone engine Mount (do it propoerly not just the bushes) try INA
Short shifter for the gear box from Forge or similar
Anti-roll bars
Front Strut Brace (audi S3)
I use the GFB 50/50 is designed for the 20v lump, and i have had it on since April, no fault codes and you can hear it 
no faults logged??
the problem i have with bovs is when your driving normal/slow when your only tickling the boost the diaphram isnt pushed fully down so its leaking the boost to atmos.
last time i had it scanned for faults it was a problem with the recuirc valve then once the light came it was going into limp mode ..
Fact is you MAF is telling the ECU a certain volume of Air has come into the engine, none of which is vented to the atmosphere under normal circumstances.......effectively with the BOV you are introducing a leak into the system.
The Split-R seems to be a small enough leak not to notice
A generic BoV may work fine, however sooner or later you will have a problem. Fault codes, limp mode etc
I've seen quite a few people try them down the years, they do 'work' but you will have issues at some time down the line

Yeah Mate I Will Be Selling It, Only Done About 200miles On It. SO Almost Brand New, I Will Let You Know
It's about as loud as you get until you get the warning lights on.
As i said i have had it oon since April ish and mate had it before on his LC, but he sold his car and put it t standard.
He's now got a TT and wants it back, but it isn't for sale.
i got a split-r and had it on hybrid for a while. i'm joining the fully recirc band wagon now. its much smoother when the atmospheric nozzle is plugged.
