All answers are in bold

What BOV are you using? Tial 50mm

How many pounds are you boosting? 34psi on pump/meth 42psi on race gas c-16

Recirculated or VTA? VTA

Any drivability issues? Using aem ems, no drivability issues

How do you like your bov? bov functions well

 

HKS BOV
30+ on race gas
VTA/recirculate
light bucking under half throttle when VTA
Hold boost extremely well, sound mean as hell.

 

I am running 30.5psi on a Heavily Ported IX Turbo on E85 now..

I am using a Greddy Type S slightly modified, Re-Circulating..

I am using this set-up because I like it the best. (I have tried a Stock VIII, Stock IX, Forge, HKS, and a few others) It is the closest I have found to stock like driveability.

I had to replace the diaphragm once because I blew it out, but I think it was because it was defective when I got it. It blew out when I was running 25psi, since I have replaced it, I am running 30.5 psi spikes now tapering to 22.5psi and it is holding up great.

 

im using a Greddy Type-S. Recir.

33 psi. on a stock evo 9 turbo.

i have a slight bucking during part throttle.

 

stock 9 bov

30psi peak to 23psi

stock driveability

haven't seen a need to swap it

 

You may want to check it. I had mine running the same set up like your until I get on the dyno. The stocker leak major boost at anything over 23psi (on mine). We crushed the top, it get up to 25 psi and that it. My boost still get up to 30 psi, but the turbo have to work extra hard to get there.

 

30psi, 35r
forge RS adjustable set somewhere in the middle.

stock driveability, recirculated, stock ecu.

 

anybody in here have an APS?

 

Mellon and several others do. If you want great driveability and high boost, it is the way to go.

I am also using the IX bov @ 30psi on an IX turbo w/ alky. It doesn't leak at 25-26psi, haven't checked beyond that yet. Driveability is so good compared to my old POS forge and Greddy type RS I don't care (yet)

 

A good friend is using an "APS" on his evolution 8. pump/meth and 30psi is no problem. Drivability is perfect and holds boost great, not much taper at all surprisingly on an evo 8 turbo by the way.

 

alrighty cuz im upgrading the spring on my forge bov, just for the time being but am wondering if in the future to go for the APS bov or go with the Tial Alpha Q bov

 

32psi 1stgen eclipse crush modded recirc no driveability problems

 

forge (rec)

low 30s PSI (depends what gear you are in)

 

EVO 8 MR w/ evo 9 bov
28psi does drop a little not sure how much(probably is leaking some)
recirculated
occasional part throttle buck but nothing major(actually very minor)
I like it but am also thinking of upgrading to a different one, anyone tried the synapse valve? I did a search a while back and it sounded good but curious if there is anyone else out there has tried it yet.
