Question which would be better? bov advice...

Alright,

Option A: get an atmospheric bov and the sound i want, but its not as good for the engine (so I have been told, feel free to correct me if I am wrong).....

Option B: get an SPT intake and be able to hear the stock bov pretty loud, plus its less harmful to the engine (I know a lot of people always say the stock intake is the best, but I'd rather loose a little hp/tq and get a safe whoosh than have an atmospheric bov that robs the engine of air).

Please correct me if I am wrong about anything and give me some advice

i seriously doubt getting an atmpspheric bov is going to HARM your engine.. maybe cause lots of nice buildup from the richness and incomplete combustion but whatever.. seafoam!

Think of it this way.. if you have an atmospheric. You will get a nice loud back fire as well..

Ricer FTW......
