Welcome!

Any reason to why you want a turbo timer and a BOV?

Don't get a bov untill you go for a turbo upgrade. Once you do, don't get the HKS.

Don't get a turbo timer

Stock holds at least 20psi, the HKS is a straight VTA on most of the settings, all it will do is make noise and shoot fire *****. No benefits unless you want big turbo with e85.

TT isnt needed because our stock turbos and most are intercooled and oil cooled.

The HKS will make you run rich. Not a tuners best chosie neither.

TTer's have that cool factor thats just not worth the money.


Hard to resist a BOV, but you must try! I'm runing a GT3076r runing no TT and an APS bov.
