Or maybe Max might be able to give some insight?

Could be an option for those that want a little bit of both worlds.
Just to clear a few things up on this as I don't want there to be any confusion.

There is no way that fit, at least i'm 95% sure it would not. As shown in Jason's picture (thanks Jason) space is limited and it would be too long/tall.

If you wanted to utilize a traditional BOV you would need to install the BorgWarner block off plate (previously mentioned) and could then install any BOV of your choice (hopefully something of high quality) in the upper intercooler piping.

Most of what I just said was previously mentioned but I just wanted to make sure there was no confusion on this topic.

I can try to get some audio of the integrated BorgWarner CRV so you can hear what it sounds like. It's definitely noticeable but not to the audible level of a traditional BOV.
