Aftermarket Blow-Off Valves

I'm from Rochester, New York. I recently bought a 2009 Cobalt SS/TC. I love the car. Its my first brand new car. Well, I only got to drive it for a week before I had to return to duty in Seoul, South Korea. I'm an Active Duty Army Sergeant. While I'm on my tour, I'm banking money to modify my car. I was wondering about aftermarket blow-off valves. I don't know much about cars and I need some input. Anyone know where is a good place to get one? Please help. Thank you

ill save you the trouble and flamming. it cant be done, and isnt really necessary, plus it will hurt the overall performance of the car majorily. your car runs a recirc valve to help with the tune. a VTA would hurt performance big time. btw welcome to the site

ill rephrase that. it can be done. it would take a good bit of work, and if im not mistaken the stock (bov) is actually a recirculation valve, which plays a major role in the tune.
