I have a 2020 and I'm planning a FBO build. Is it necessary to upgrade the factory BOV? Can it adequately handle the increased boost pressure after it's tuned, or should I just put on a VTA adapter and call it good? Thanks

I wouldn’t trust the oem bypass valve but adding just a vta adapter is doing just that. You’d still be relying on it staying closed under boost.
