2 bov's?
Well I'm in the middle of swapping my intercooler from the air to water that came on the car when I purchased it to a air to air. It had 2 bov's on it. One is a tial 50 mm and the other is a turbonetic's raptor. My question is should I keep one or both? And if just one which one should I keep?

I've heard of running more than one BOV when you're tight on space and can't fit one valve big enough to relieve the airflow. Or if you want your car to sound like a jet.
Most of the time you see 2 or more on race cars...that are making 40+ PSi.
If one of those valves will support the amount of airflow you need relieve then you can just run one. If not, you'll need both.

Can't tell: is that an Si or T-trim on there?
