Anyone running the TURBOXS HYBRID 50/50 BOV?

Was wondering if any members are running this BOV without any MAF sensor related problems you normally get with the VTA BOV's. This is supposedly a 50/50 recirculationg/vent to atmosphere BOV. Looking for some input thanks

I have had this valve on my car for about a week now.......
Honestly, I think there are better products out there. With a metal on metal seal this valve leaks vacuum / boost on the signal side of the valve. I have not had any problems with the MAF or fuel trims to speak of. It is adjusted with no shims & the cap backed off about 1/8 of a turn.....flutter is minimal.

the IX bov is a proven piece up to about 25 psi isn't it? above that psi, the forge diverter valve is a good option. or if you're speed density you could do a 50/50 or 100% VTA.

^ this is more of a ricer mod. They don't want functionality.

They might as well VTA with the stock DV and call it a day.
