It looks to be taller than the CRV that comes included though so clearance may or may not be an issue. Maybe you can have a look when you get it on the lift? Or maybe Max might be able to give some insight?

Could be an option for those that want a little bit of both worlds.
Just to clear a few things up on this as I don't want there to be any confusion.

There is no way that fit, at least i'm 95% sure it would not. As shown in Jason's picture (thanks Jason) space is limited and it would be too long/tall.

If you wanted to utilize a traditional BOV you would need to install the BorgWarner block off plate (previously mentioned) and could then install any BOV of your choice (hopefully something of high quality) in the upper intercooler piping.

Most of what I just said was previously mentioned but I just wanted to make sure there was no confusion on this topic.

I can try to get some audio of the integrated BorgWarner CRV so you can hear what it sounds like. It's definitely noticeable but not to the audible level of a traditional BOV.

I beg to differ Max. The build got to hit the pavement for the first time in 6 months last night; I thought at first I was going to hate these integrated BoVs meaning no more "choo choo" noises which is imo the coolest part of being turbo, but to my surprise at as little as 2-4lbs of boost these things are VERY MUCH noticeable and easily comparative to the sound I got from my 50mm turbosmart valves on 12lbs from my GTM kit. I can definitely say I'm not the least bit disappointed by the sound.

I can tell each of you that this kit still retains all of the cool "im turbo" sounds, and I must say, I love it.

Great to hear some additional feedback! Thanks for this.

Also - how was the car doing?
