Is the stock bpv leak prone? Or is this more for a sound factor.

We've seen a few leak, but these are more to hold higher boost applications and for the sound. They come with 2 different springs to try out for different boost levels.
Interesting! I will definitely be looking into this. Any YouTube videos? How much louder than stock (BPV and BOV)?

I don't have a video but speaking from experience with the recirculating BPV it is noticeably louder, sounds great
I hate to sound stupid but what's the difference with the two besides the nipple veing angled on one

one recirculates back into the intake, and one vents to the atmosphere
Ok so its just a personal preferace

what are the advantages and disadvantages of the two
there's really none, it's mostly a sound preference. The BOV is louder than the BPV. They both hold boost better than stock and they aren't made of rubber so they won't tear. Plus you can adjust them
Ok well ill order mine on Monday

Jerry, can you provide some real world benefits (maybe with charts?) to explain why one would drop $165 other than to have the noise? What do you mean it will hold boost better? What does recirculating do other than dampen the noise? My understanding is that the re circulation helps turbo lag.
Obviously they don't add power, so do they help lag, throttle response, spooling?

You won't see any more max power with these, and it's really debatable that you'll see any difference at all. This is a quality and sound upgrade, as stated by the poster above me.
But we've seen in the 2.0 market that some cars will run an extra lb or 2 of boost that they were losing due to the stock rubber diaphragm valve.
Can you run the bpv without a tune and what would changing the springs do for it if so

OMG, I wish I wasn't piss poor!!! I want this
they are used for certain amounts of boost, yellow one is for if you're running 20+psi the green is for anything lessI am tuned but don't know what ECP is cause i would like the BOV to atmospheric and what are the 2 springs for...sorry for the dump questions just want it explained better befor i buy
