greddy type s bov
I ran a Type S. Usually you apply the single spring mod to avoid getting compressor surge from the bov fluttering. The downside is that it tends to open earlier than usual, like at part throttle and it just won't work as good as your factory bov, or the JDM MR bov. I've heard of some people having no problems with the single spring mod. I'm also not sure how the Type S will react to boost levels higher than 1.5 bar. I ran the type S on the stock turbo, 10.5 hotside.

yea but i like the bov sound and turbo trix told me thats the best bov. does anyone know any other that sound just like the type s not the rs? and i also heard you can get stiffer spring for the type s so it can hold more boost
You said nothing in regards to his question.

That is one of the worst things you could possibly say on this forum and do to your car. With all the BOV threads that have caused so much pain and anger on this forum, you still had the nuts to admit that you are just looking for the sound EVEN IF YOUR STOCKER IS BETTER? That simply BLOWS MY MIND...
So? You're saying you know that if you spend $200, it won't make more power, yet you're willing to buy it anyway just for sound? That's ridiculous. Sound does nothing - it's just noise. Don't you want your car to be at its best? And don't you want to spend your hard-earned money on things that HELP the car? Lastly, when you get your intake, you'll hear the BOV sound all day long.
PS. It's hard to believe that Turbotrix told you the Greddy Type S is the BEST bov - pretty much everyone in the Evo community knows that is not true. I sure hope they didn't say that...

The BOV is not a power mod. When I say performance is detracted I am implying the other areas of "performance". Spool up, Acceleration, Decceleration etc. etc.. these are things a dyno is not going to fully show you.
But it sounds like you have your mind made up. I just ask that you take this into consideration, 200.00 bov/ 0 performance gain vs 200.00 mail in flash from a reputable tuner/ noticable gain.

My remark was more of a comment on atmospheric bov's vs. recirc units than, a comment about the Greddy unit in general. Although I am glad that it provided you the opportunity to put your smart A$$ quirp in there. I was simply saying that in my experience the stock unit is more than suficient on a car that has minimal mods and is not running a mas sensor setup, or for that matter, that I am almost positive is not tuned for one. Also I am trying to save a fellow member from spending money on an unneeded mod, as I did. I am sure that that pssh sound has given you countless hours of enjoyment but, I will take overall performance over asthetics any day
Sir, let me give you an alternative that might sound just as good as VTA without the adverse effects. Use your Type S and recirc it. Get a Blitz Induction Cover and a intake hard pipe from the turbo to the maf. Your car will run fine. You will hear the noises you seek.
Can you come up with a more expensive way to hear the BOV perhaps? That's about as bad as it gets.
Stock IX DV + $80 Buschur filter = whoooooooooooooosh. Not sure why this is so hard.

I would hardly call what I said sucking up. More like taking a previously stated point and expanding on it. Second, I am a combat vet, so calling me sweetheart is like saying that your retort has a point, all f'd up.
Okay, genious. Didn't you hear that he wants the MF'ing Type S for the sound. If you're not going to help this cat, kick rocks. Don't tell me that you have never heard of a situation where a cone filter causes a/f problems. I'm giving the guy an honest answer to his question to get what he wants, without the drivability issues. You just stepped in to **** and moan about "OMG deez BOV NOOBZ!" and "Buy BUSCHUR!"
