Default Hit or Skip? Go fast bits hybrid recirculating bov

I am running a baileys dv right now and have loved it but the sound with my intake is not that cool. A buddy of mine is running a gfb dv and it has a great sound but not sure of any performance gains. I have heard that the gfb is much more reliable, is this true? Should I stay with baileys or go gfb? Pros and cons?
Thanks everyone.

Default I wish I could get 30 mpg. On average, I'm getting 23 mpg with most

of my time on the freeway.

Mine is not a daily driver so the gas isn't a big concern.

Default the engine would sputter and want to shut off...

CEL was coming. Friend of mine put one on his GTI and the hybrid shut it down on 50 last year coming home from h2o. I guess you could try it? Let me know what happens.
