Default Blowoff Valve and other enhancements for 2002 1.8t

Can someone explain the blowoff valve (aftermarket) and what scenario would benefit from this enhancement (over stock).

I am getting the APR stage1 + next week - should this be a purchase i should be thinking about?

Also while we are on this, what about air filters? Should i just get a K&N or is there merit in the full upgrades like:

BOV is not an enhancement. It's a MAF breaker.

i disagree, with any increase in boost over the stock 8PSI i would play it safe and get a BPV

Default Audis like bpv or dv's better...

The Forge DVR is really nice. However the Bosch 110 sport, which are used on MTM big turbo kit, do the job for more than half the price of the Forge.

Default Use the Forge dual-piston BOV. David at Eurocode tuning can explain why it's safe.

Could someone explain the usage - right or wrong - and pros and cons of moving from stock?
