which BOV to use?

i was just wondering if there is any rules for BOV or are they all the same. i want to run around 7-8 psi and wanted to use a blitz blow off valve, would that work or are those for cars with higher boost levels?

If you want a really cheap new one, go for the plastic Bosch. Won't handle high boost though.

there is nipple for a vacuum line on the BOV right? where does that go? i thought once you bolt the BOV onto the charge pipe you're done...but i think there is one more thing. any info?

connect it to your intake manifold, behind the throttlebody.

Re:which BOV to use?
