Recirculating blow off valves can be heard actually and are noisy, not as loud as vented obviously but still easy to be heard outside the car. Same principle as compressor surge, its loud but the air isn't being vented is it? wink1.gif

I do agree that there is no reason to buy a less efficient intercooler just to be "stealthy."

Im not trying to be mean, but I dont think you have any idea what youre talking about.

Anyways, Im not really sure how much boost you would be pushing on your tib with the T25, but Im going to assume its less then 15psi which is what my talon is doing with T25 and stock intercooler. So really there is no need to even get a FMIC unless you plan on running a bigger turbo in the future.



since i know how to make maual boost controllers i'm plannig on boosting 17 psi max and 11-14psi on average daily driving.

I wouldn't boost that high with a side mount, even if you are dropping compression.

Is that possible on a stock beta? That is past the T-25's potential.

Ye, would think that would be out of a T25's efficiency, dig up a compressor map and check.

I would have to say do a non-painted FMIC. I've seen about 2 in town, and I always stop and stare. They look beautiful, and only those who know what they are and what to look for really see them.
