You want a TurboXS valve like you want a hole in your head. They leak like crazy, pretty much all of them.

How much boost are you running?

You'll get further using proper english.

Why do you need one so badly? How much boost are you running?

Stock....

Maintenance and set up free and reliably holds boost very well. More than the amount of boost most people run anyways. The stock piece is better than almost all aftermarket ones, which are often set up wrong (if even set up at all) or proper maintenance is never done on them. Both cases result in boost/intake leaks. And it's a recirculating valve, so no effects on performance or driveability.

I don't always agree with brfatal, but he's 100% right here. Get a stock one and be done with it.
