Looking at this image I'm guessing the answer is no! Could be wrong though....

100% atmo, but you can buy plumb back kits for them.

Are you sure it was a genuine HKS SSQV for $50? I doubt it.

Yeah i doubt its a genuine one for $50

I paid alot more than that for one second hand about 4 months ago.

I am told (by a reliable source) that if going for an aftermarket BOV, the HKS SSQV is one of the better ones to go for because it is a "pull type" BOV thus able to hold boost levels with out leaking like other "cheaper" or "push type" BOV's.

Yep, the pull types are the way to go apart from the stock valve, because they are actually pushed shut on boost.. The more boost there is, the harder they are held closed.

Yeah...I see what you guys are saying but check this pic out the guy had a whole heap of different brands....the only one that didn't come with an adapter kit was the GFB (red)

Thats why I bought one Ballsak

Some people are just full of knowledgable information.

Of course I retained my stock STi one incase I ever get sick of the noise, or if I decide I want my fuel economy back

I'd like to bet none of those BOV's are genuine. China copies I would say.
