I had the same prob. I found a metal replacement from RPW but ended up going for the Force RS BOV and I'm glad I did.

also replaced oem filter with Blitz filter ... lovin the induction & whistle sounds

You gotta trawl through all the international lancer forums, I found one on evo x forums within an hour of looking, and had it on my car 5 days later :)

$209 seems expensive, is that the going rate for oem evo x bov ?

Forge RS cost me $252 delivered and has adjustment up to 34psi

hahaha the good ol snorkel well for the same price might be worth a shot giving the forge a go. With the tension what exactly does that give you? im a noob with this

haha me to mate, learning as I go

adjust as you add engine mods.

started with the valve at full "-" which is 7psi and ended up setting it to 2 1/2 full turns which equates to around 12psi ... Ive only got a panel filter & the bov so basically a stock RA
