from what i've heard from installers, if you don't have the BOV that vents back into the intake tract, you leave yourself open to stalling issues. i'm just speaking on the aps kit only.

I LOVE the APS BOV!

Finally a bov that doesn't make your car sound like a FnF car.
In addition it's not huge either it's hardly noticable visually and audibly yet doing a great job
It's by far the best BOV I have had the pleasure of "meeting"

Why are you not crazy about it?

I'd like a bit more volume, but it does sound great.
