I just found one for $160. Does that seem fair? Free shipping. I'm thinking about trying this out. My BOV was working fine but lately seems to blow off right before my gear change around 5,000rpm. I loose my boost right before she changes gears.

mine is the one in the picture I posted above. The black cover might actually be plastic. I thought it was metal but tapped on it with a wrench and it did not sound like metal. The extreme heat in Illinois this summer might have taken a toll on her.

Thanks for taking the time to post a pic. Looks like we have the PCV installed similarly. My RIPP is behaving extremely stable and strong as of late - think I'll reinstall the Vortech BOV to see what happens. 
I just don't like the "flapping" sound the plastic BOV makes when releasing boost.

I pulled my crank case hose and looked at mine. They look the same to me although mine is dirty. I have mine pushed down the hose a way because the it was hitting the nipple the hose attaches to. I also took a picture of my BOV. Is it the same as the one your having trouble with?
