Quote: Do you mean "initially"? I don't see how the Tial would even come into the equation - it's made for big turbo setups running VTA. The Greddy...well, the only reason that would come up is because of its brand name. If you upgrade, get a Forge RS or APS - preferably the Forge since it is 100% recirculating.
funny you mention this... that greddy is only brought up because of brand name... as the type-s is about 98% the same in design and dimension as a stock valve (that i know you love, i love it itoo). the differences being is comes with the pnumatic assist nipples already installed, it's flanged, it's purple and also makes an obnoxious noise when it vents.

then you mention other brand names... such as forge and aps... curious guy you are.

Quote: Ohh.. I see what you're saying.. The hks is good for holdinging high boost, I don't really want to get rid of it. Could I not just recirc it?? By the way. If vta is not good for our cars why do so many people use them? I've seen 400hp time attack cars and 600hp drag cars with vta bov's? Why do they use it? {I'm just wondering} thanx..
If you want to go aftermarket I would go with this one.

Its the forge recirc BOV. It also comes with 3 different springs a soft(green), medium(blue), and hard spring(red). And its easy to switch springs all u use is a allen wrench.

It comes with a yellow as well. I think it's the softest, but I'm not positive on that.

The yellow is actually the other color for the medium spring.

The green is 5-15psi
The yellow or blue is 15-23psi
And the red is 23-30psi

wow... while we're advertising... i say get the dejon tools leak stop kit for the 1g bov, all preassembled for HALF the price of any other piece of crap out there.

you get stock like response when venting and you hold ALL THE BOOST THAT YOU CAN MAKE. sound too good to be true? have your cake and eat it too.

Yeap, stock BOV provides the good drivability but bad efficiency in holding air - good to 25psi.

Same reason slicks in the back with skinnys up front dont work with evos - not compatible. The ECU relys on that recirced air to maintain a tune between shifting

im resurrecting an old thread lol

i replaced my stock ix dv with the forge rs recirc because i got tuned for meth, and i read all over that the stock metal ix dv leaks past 25 - 26 psi

the forge flutters all over the place, whether i tighten or loosen it

i went back to the stock bov, better driveability, although im probably leaking boost at 28psi (what im tuned for)
