Well, you are on the list that I sent him for commited buyers who sent me their address and car specific info, so if you're lucky, you could email/call them (ask for oliver) and still get it for the GB price even though it's over. It would be worth a shot. Price was $145 which includes overnight back shipping to you.

But then I know people who runs bovs on pre 2000 1.8ts with no problem? I have looked at a few forge models the 007 is the one I think I want. As to fuel upgrades you refer to i'd like a better explanation.
i ran a 004 (BOV) on my 98.5 for about a year. just recently it started backfiring pretty bad when i would shift, so i don't think its all that safe anymore. go with a DV
