That new hotness to me
Best part is i could probably sell my DSM and get that for maybe 10-20 dollas more
It's kinda hard to mess a BOV up thou. Only thing you wouldn't, if anything, be satisfied with
is the sound. I would buy it personally if i were in your position

where i work sells them
i`ve completely tear it down, put it side by side with the real one and they are like 99.9% identical to each other.
the real one has a Slightly softer(10% or so) spring but the fake one work just fine.
other than that the only difference is the color of the valve :P (copper on real and black on fake)
oh and they sound exactly the same too.

here`s the same ---- that cost less:
