BOV or RECIRC VALVE HELP SUGGESTIONS
I am currently back to stock, I still have a AP BOV that I was running for about 3 weeks on my Evo. I had it 50/50 at first then 100% recirc. However I could never get it to the point of no flutter so I removed it.
I am looking for a BOV or just a recirculating valve that works better than the stock and has no flutter issues.
AP said its just a sweet spot and all adjustable BOV will have a little flutter. I don't want any flutter. I wanted to try a lighter spring ( does anyone know if a Tial spring will fit in the AP BOV).
I want something smaller than stock if possible as my stock one taps my PW:JDM strut bar, foam underneath the bar at the spot stopped the occasional rattling but the AP had clearance.
Any help with this ( providing you have used it and not just saying it looks sweet) would be appreciated.
TIA

I've been e-mailing Chad from CBRD lately and he recommended the Synapse Engineering Diverter Valve.
Sounds like this maybe what you're looking for.
From Synapse Engineering:
Synchronic DV is the first, truly compact, zero-diaphragm, high-flow Diverter Valve with a blistering actuation time measured at 25 milliseconds. MAF and speed density applications can apply the new design in push or pull orientation with the ability to fully re-circulate or vent-to-atmosphere the valve’s discharge. Construction is based on near-net investment casting of aerospace-grade Aluminum for the body, followed by CNC machining of all components including the forged 6061 actuator assembly. A complete selection of available mounting flanges are interchangeable between the SB and DV series and users can either upgrade from an existing BOV/DV or weld on to a new project. Boost/vacuum connections are made via 1/8th NPT threaded bosses that accept either Boost Connect™ or included nickel-plated-brass barb fittings. Each assembly is pressure tested to withstand 60 psi and positive lock clamshell retainers are included with each assembly for fitment.
