I didn't find specific info that I was looking for so I have some questions. How much boost can the stock det recirc valve hold without blowing open or leaking. Alot of guys on here use it and run like 10+ psi, but I wonder if there are any problems (Pro's-con's). I don't want to shell out $250+ for a BOV when I have the det one. I think the max the stock valve would see is maybe 12 psi. Is the 1st gen dsm one worth it? Is there that big of a difference?

Thanks, Steve.

Chris he has a BB DET.

Steve I bought a recirc valve from Jim Wolf that was made by HKS for $100. Give me a call somewhere this weekend and I'll show it to you. I'm not sure what the spec is but Ben recommended it to me.

Dude I got the pump installed! Thanks for the help and coming over last night.
