I don't see where anyone called it rice, although that is definitely my thought on it - I just didn't say that. The only thing I said was "RiceMasters" as a direct reply to KenMasters...
Having to purchase an extra part (HKS EIDS) just to PARTIALLY make a VTA BOV work by masking the effect of why it screws up the MAF all for the purpose of SOUND is the pure definition of rice. You pay extra...a lot more than what a proper BOV would cost...to still not perform well as the stock BOV (sorry, I guess you don't know what is happening when you run VTA if you think it "performs well").
Regardless, I didn't call it rice or give you a hard time, but I see that it does fit in this case. Just to reiterate, doing a mod that reduces performance while spending extra money only to gain attention is the pure definition of rice. But, as the liberal folks have already said, if it "makes you happy," then who cares right? I miss the days of people doing proper mods to their Evos for the purpose of being faster, then going and actually racing them. Our group has quickly deteriorated into an embarassing compilation of showgirls, and it's really disappointing. Sorry for the rant, but the GFB is well known to be one of the worst BOVs for the Evo regardless of what SEMA thinks about it for other cars.
