those blow offs will leak boost when you start making over 15psi.. they also don't flow nearly as much air as the greaddy racing one will and there for not as effective..
****, well i don't plan on past 15psi on this turbo, when i upgrade to something huge i will keep that in mind.

My babies a 1990 TII, completely stock aside from a 3in exhaust with both cats. Really this is more for PM, although my car only has 68 kilometers on it (53 at the start of the summer). Anything that could make my turbo last longer is welcome and the noise is cool as well. I’ve never been that interested in “moding” my engine, but I’m going to do some suspension work this summer and possible get a better set of 17” wheels. Of course this once I’m driving it full time again after winter. Damn these Canadian winters…

That's a good price... The newer Apexi blow off's are also good to go and don't leak boost till you get to around 1.3 or 1.4....., but I still like the greddy one... The HKS Racing one is also good, but starts to leak boost at around 1.2, but you can get the stiffer spring and upgrade it...
