There is also the GFB DV+. A lot of people found there stock DV was leaking. So it's a worthy upgrade once your car has some miles on it. Lowers WGDC, increases boost where it should be and increases response. Install isn't the hardest but it's not a quick install. Plan on a few hours.

By the way, a few weeks ago, I noticed no BOV 'pppsstt' sound. Took it to the shop. Turns out the BOV was loose (top part is hand tightened to the bottom part). The mechanic made sure it was tight this time and all is good now. I had the Forge BOV for a few yrs now and this is the only time something came up. For those who installed it, make sure you tightened the top part as much as humanly possible.

Sole point of it is preventing pressured(w high speed) air hitting the turbo "fins" when you release throttle. The psssh sound is a bi-product and is optional depending on valve. |

It's really hard to get to cause it's under the engine and everything around it is cramped together cause the body is more compact than F30's. It makes a really sick sound, almost addictive. Everytime you release the throttle, the valve gives off a very pronounced high pitched hissing sound that turns the heads of people on the side walk or their drive ways even at low speeds. It's a very rare mod to have on any BMW let alone a 2 series. It's amazing.
