One of the more popular CP on the market right now is ER. It's one of the few charge pipes out there all ready for meth with convenient locations for the bungs. If you were going a meth route I would probably recommend it. Other popular ones are ETS, Stett, cp-e, etc. Just do your research and see what fits your budget and what you personally want.

As for BOV, are you sure you want a BOV? A lot of people recommend Forge DV. There's also the HKS and TiAL BOV. I've heard the HKS BOV is a little louder and whiney. I think TiAL is the more preferred one and has a high HP rating.

I'll be buying mine soon and will be getting the ER CP w/ TiAL BOV and 2 meth bungs.

I too can vouch for the ER charge pipe although I run diverter valves with mine.

I run the ER chargepipe with synapse BOV. It's a great combo. It's just about the perfect volume when you want to have fun and when you wan't it to be quiet you can't even hear it.

Will do I'm unsure of if/when I'll be doing meth, but for resale purposes as recommended I might get them. I'm still contemplating that whole thing. By the time I'm ready to install meth, I'll probably want a newer car anyway.

My buddy has a 135i with a TiAL BOV and it sounds perfect, not too loud, not too quiet, just enough to know that the car flies.

The HKS Synapse? I've just heard more negative things than positive and to be honest, I think it sticks out like a sore thumb. The TiAL is much more incognito (I'll be getting the black one). I think in the end it comes down to personal preference, as rader1 says he loves his Synapse BOV.

That being said I would definitely get the TiAL. Also, get an intake if you haven't already. I have the aFe DCI, at WOT you really hear the turbos spool up and it's an AWESOME feeling. Again, I've heard my friend's 135 spool up and blow off from his TiAL and it's like a quick shot of the sound you're looking for. No trail.

Good luck and when I get mine set up I'll be sure to grab a sound clip for you
