Default Hks ssqv for blobeye Impreza sti

Hi all I've finally decided to buy the hks ssqv blow off valve for my 04 Impreza sti. Looking for the best place to buy from and preferably with the intercooler mounting adapter included. Scoobyworld show a pic of it on there page but it doesn't confirm it's included. I know some places sell them as universal fitting then you buy the adapter afterwards.
I know people will say they're not worth it but I've had my "cheaper dump valve" fitted for 2 years and I'm fed up with the noise of it. Anyone know of any for sale used or if not the cheaper sites to try.
Thanks all
Happy scoobying

I bought the HKS from Sumo Car Parts, but Scoobyworld, and various outlets sell them.

As for the Rubber gasket (if this is what you mean) I bought mine from grimspeed as it was a thicker rubber than standard paper gaskets, but ICP sell normal ones for the re-circ which will fit as well..

Thanks for the response. The adapter plate I'm referring to is the triangular price that fits to the top of the intercooler. It's fitted with c clips and o rings to the base of the hks.
Sumo power is cheaper than scoobyworld so good advice on that.
How's the sound? Is it as loud as people say?
