Had my Torque Solutions DV spacer for about a year now or so. It's great and not too loud. You would get similar noises with an open intake set up.

As far as the concern about issues, there are none with the factory DV and a spacer. Most issues come from aftermarket units that stop sealing or opening all the way.

I had the torque solutions one :p. As mentioned above by sparky, I think it's probably not as bad with the auto, and especially with the DSG for the quick shifts.

Just installed ECSs atm dv spacer. I have the DSG so only hear it when I want to (sharply let off throttle under boost). No oil residue I can see. Fun cheap noise maker with zero impact on performance that i can see. If you have a stick yeah....that would get annoying.

Sounds cool. I'd consider it if I got a larger turbo in the car. It would be funny to look like a stock wagon with a BOV, but actually go fast. =)

I had an '03 WRX with an AFE fenderwell intake and TurboXS RFL blowoff valve. That car sucked and blowed all day long, like MegaMaid. Sounded awesome IMO.
