Worx Tuning Dual Stage Blow Off Valve is what I would get if I was looking to purchse a BOV again. Currently own an HKS SSQV and it sounds sweet but I would like more control ( i.e. running it closed or at different stages of vent).

I have no problem with my stock BOV in my STi. Unless you're pushing more boost than stock, I'd stick with your OE BOV.
