I need some input! I am ready to purchase some new diverter valves, but I am unsure which ones mainly because of the feedback I've received so far.

I was either going to purchase the HX Diverter Valves from Stratmosphere or I was going to buy the Diverter Blow Off Valve from LLtek.

I am being told to NOT buy the LLtek because of how Audi's recirculate the air to the inlet of the diverter valve. I know this is a true fact. I am being told that with the LLtek D-BOV that the recirculated air would be vented into the atmosphere and it would not benefit my car.

There is also a huge price difference between the two valves as well. Can anyone shed some light on this for me.

I thank you all in advance!

That is correct, the air the BOV would vent has already been "counted" by the MAF and would therefore cause a rich condition between shifts and may affect drivability. I say go with a valve like the HX valves or something similar like the 710N or Forge.
