Hey everyone, I have a greddy type RS BOV and im curious to know how everyone else with the same BOV has it set up best for them. Im not boosting to much only 19psi. I had the dual spring in there and whenever i made a quick stop after accelerating the car would die... any thoughts? With just the larger spring it seems like it leaks even before full boost. I also have a type S as well but have been told the RS is a much better BOV. Just trying to get it down.

 

Well first of all you're boosting stock psi, and are you on MAF or speed density ? Ive had all three Greddy bov's type rs, type s, and type r and they all suck! Go with a Tial Qr and problem solved.

 

Why not just run a stock IX BOV recirc and call it day since your running stock PSI?

 

well mainly because its what I have and was given why buy something if I can get one of these to work... buying another bov would be my last resort.

I have the type S and it held 30 psi on the stock turbo fine. I boost leak tested it to 35psi as well. Not sure why everyone hates the Greddy valves so much I feel it is user error in setting them up because mine drove better than the stock IX valve and held plenty of boost.
I switched to the Synapse just because everything I read about it being "best valve ever" and I don't see any difference between the two when properly set up.

 

Are you recirculating ?

 

yes recirculating
