I bought a non-STI WRX BOV on ebay for cheap-cheap (so it's no biggie if I can't use it) and it goes off at around 20 PSI, as far as my research has yielded.

Q: With an intercooled (read: massive Volvo 740/850 IC) T03 (also from Volvo 740) will this BOV be adequate, or will it never go off, ruining my F2?

I know that the turbo is capable of making 12 PSI, and that the builtin wastegate limits that to 7PSI, which I hope to control later with a manual boost controller.
