switching bov

im kinda getting tired of my vta blitz bov, the sound and the idle issues. everyone talks about the mr dv, forged dv. are the recirculation valves the same thing? what does everyone recommend? ive got close to 300whp at 21psi if that makes a differnece. thanks in advance.

Hks recir is good. they're by law of physics, can't leak or something or other.

Greddy Type s recir is good as well. I have them in my car.

MR DV will be the way to go.

HKS have fluttering problem, greddy type s has a problem with not opening properly at partial throttle on 2nd gear or if you're not on boost the gear before.

MR DV - same as stock but metal install of plastic. It's a Mitsubishi part so it is meant to go there.

i dont know about ur statement wit the Greddy Type S. it works perfect for me, but a few other local evo owner had their issues wit it. but when it comes to bov everyone will have different experiences with them depending on their set up and car. i had so issue wit the Greddy before. but after some fine tuning wit it i have it working perfectly.

JUST REMEMBER TO EACH THEIR OWN.

but i would recommend the Greddy Type-S. but if u want a bov the works wit basically no problems at all then get the MR bov. i heard it holds well up even on high boost.

Yeh, I would recommend Greddy Type-s recir. I tried to adjust the screw on it, it takes some time to adjust it where it's loose enough to open on partial throttle boost, but close tight as well.

I haven't gone back and tried to loosen it more.

I've heard great things about the greddy type S. NOt sure if it can hold 25 psi though.

I recently bought a greddy type s knock-off version. I hear it works exactly like the type S. I have the 1g bov and a 1g flange which requires drilling new holes for the type S. I might end up saling it due to this and the fact that this bov might not hold 25 psi. PM me if you're interested. New, never installed. Comes with everything picture here. $70 shipped.

I might be selling my greddy type s vta with recirculating kit specific for evo (the flange).

$175 + shipping? flange alone is $30.

I wanna get the dual port one my friends selling.

$120 pretty much everywhere, but it's often on backorder, due to popularity.

Try gruppe-s, kingofimports, lancershop, MachV, etc...

I really like my JDM MR DV. I got mine from Lancershop for $137 shipped and got a free T-shirt too. I've done business with Mastaminds (parent company) before and have had good luck with them.
