If you are going to recirc a valve, i would not use an SSQV unless staying at low boost (like less than 15psi). The exhaust port is really small. I am running a recirced Greddy type RS (because it was a second hand, genuine one, for cheap, and came with a hotpipe).

It uses 2 springs though, so will leak under vacuum like all dump valves with this design. But as it is recirced, this is not a problem.
I plan on keeping this car under 15 psi untill i have supporting upgrades. Probably for a couple years. The HKS SQV4 is available on their website from HKSUSA.com for just under $300. the office is based in L.A..... why are my odds of finding a genuine valve so low? That IS genuine...
