I take it your talking about a vent to air dump valve (as you already have a dump valve)

Yes if you want that sound (it makes NO performance improvement on its own)

No if you want to guarrentee that the car runs correctly (Can cause the car to overfuel occasionally)

What's wrong with the standard one that's fitted from the factory?

At what point does the standard re-circ become restrictive?

No. You'll tire of the racket eventually and it may have a detrimental effect on the way your car drives. The std recirculating one is perfectly good.

Plus, eveyone will think: "What an attention seeking plonker"

I have one fitted to mine, but the pops and bangs from the exhaust also attracts attention.

If you are an attention ***** then yes, otherwise it has no benefit whatsoever!

IMO when i hear a scooby i want the burble not a wooshing noise like some chav c*nt in a rs turbo!

DONT DO IT!!!!!!
