I'm running one on my 99 RA, with no problems, 15K miles now.

Alex,

why? You should be running a recirculating BOV not a vent to atmosphere - get yourself a chirruppy Forge like mine!

cos i don't have an induction kit Trout, thats why... a recirc will make no noise with my panel filter, and until I see chuckster '01 on the rollers, I ain't touching an induction kit on the '01.

My strengthened forge VTA is arriving this weekend anyway

Just intrigued by the HKS, as I like HKS products

Alex,

so screwing up your already screwy ECU is less important than that squishy noise your car makes

Trout - it would appear the HKS has sorted some of the mid-range issues I had, unlikely it was the D/V. As the other main D/V thread says, it shouldn't cause any negative issues once the right spring is used.

RB5SCOTT - which induction kit? K&N from GG?
