just bought 05 9-3ss
 

i started buying euro cars after i bought my passat and i will never go back. so i bought a 9-3ss 2.0t auto with tip. i want to put a bov on it but i dont know what way to go. i have been doing some searching but some help would be great.

there have been people who did it and were lucky, but the car is a MAF equipped car and you will most liekly throw a check engine light when you put it on...

is that the only neg thing that would happen? thats fine, i will pull the bulb or just clear it everyday!! i have read alot about the forge bov is that the way to go? also my car what type of motor is it?(ex. R32) i was also looking at turbo upgrade tubes are they worth buying? what kind of exhaust would you perfer. i like the borla sound, i have that on my 01 passat v6 32v tip and it sound perfact. sorry for all the questions but i like to know my cars, and now that i am a euro head i need to start sucking it all in. do you guys get meeting together? i will have pics up later today.

thanks for the info if you write back!

The forge is a very quiet unit (reason I have it). If you're looking for sound look at what the scoobie guys are using. I believe the CEL is the only consequense. As far as exhaust goes...I'm making myself a custom 3 incher right now with a magnaflow muffler and resonator. You really don't know how it'll turn out until it's on the car:)

From everything I've read about the newer cars everywhere, moding 'em isn't a great idea... I'm not entirely sure why, but I'd love to see a modified one... Heck, I'd love to modify ours, if it wasn't a dd...
