Red -
If you want a reliable and bullet proof BOV, then I have the answer - our BOV was tested in a magazine called the speed and sound a good few months back in comparison with other makes like Turbosmart, Turbonetics, Forge and a few locally manufactured ones - ours was top pf the list for functionality, robustness and accuracy.
Alot of the other BOV's seem to stall the engine whencoming to a stop if the spring rate isn;t calculated correctly or the valve's tension is not adjusted correctly. With our valve we didn;t have the need to make any adjustments on the tention at all, it was a install it and forget it scenario.
The discharge from the valve also proved to be more than the others in comparison and showed a LOUD TTSSSHHHH sound from under the bonnet when changing gears - enough to frighten small children on the sidewalk... :-) LOL
Well for just over $100.00 you can't go wrong.

Red,
I assume this is a standard T3 Garrett Turbine. You are keeping all the stock positions for radiator and fans and so forth.
Let me know the exact size of the compressor, which way you want it to be turned / mounted... etc. Also he will probably need the pattern and positioning of the blow off valve.
My friend says that he can build you a hand welded 1-3, 2-4 into single collector exhaust manifold for around $800. It will take him around one week. It really is a piece of art. I will try to take a picture of the ones that he made that is mounted on a couple of the 600+ hp cars.
We might be able to get our hands on a T3/T4 and a Tial 40 mm wastegate here... I will ask around.
If you are still interested let me know.
