BOV that recirculates and vents
What is the name and where can I find the blow off valve that recirculates air to the intake and vents to the atmosphere. I saw it on here last week and went to a website and found it but now I can't seem to find it here or the site it was on.

i'm not sure if i know enough about the bov, but they said the Good For Bits (GFB) hybrid bov is the one that works 50-50. that is 50% into the atmosphere and the other 50% in the intake. this is my opinion. i could be wrong, but that is what i remember. good luck

Is it normally a problem on these cars to run the BOV dumped to the atmosphere? I had a Talon and the only downfall to running open atmosphere on it was if the clutch was pushed in at higher than 4K it would stall. Is that a problem with the WRX or is it more of an idle issue?
I have a GFB hybrid bov installed on my 03 WRX, with the only other mods being a pannal filter and a Vishnu single dump turbo back system. I have run the bov anywhere between 25-90% atmospheric vent and have had absolutely no problems. No stumbling. No problems under any condition. However, absolutely no performance gains.
For vanity's sake, I recommend the GFB bov. I have not however heard anyone actually say that their bov HELPED their performance. Just sounds neat

I wasn't looking for a performance increase. Just making sure that the car would run well. How loud is the GFB? Does the volume change much when you change adjust it from recirc to atmos.

The valve you want is the WorxTuning Dual Stage valve(www.WorxTuning.com). It works much better than the other valves available.
