hks bov or greddy type-s
I believe the VTA will always give you problems.. I have the Type-S and it's awesome.. It's recycled, but it sounds like it's VTA.. It's sooo loud with my Buschur intake filter kit.... It's wicked... But I'm sure the HKS with recycling kit would sound great also.. I just love the capability to adjust the tension on the Type-S...
I can say this....I'm looking at a Tial or Turbo XS RFL. I have a Forge and I am not happy with it. I had my first almost stall issue yesterday and it flutters no matter what. Tried different orientations, different springs, wahsers, etc. I like it, it's a nice piece, but not preforming how I thought it would. If I HAD to chose between your 2 choices, I would do the HKS.
HKS is good for VTA, but not that great for recirc. Plus, HKS has not release the official recirculation kit for the SSQV yet (EVO). Exactly how is the greddy-type s sound? I got the AEM intake and my stock BOV is pretty darn loud. But I'm just wondering how the Greddy will sound. I heard it sounds like a bird. Is that true? And I heard alot of problems with spring tension and stalling problems. Greddy if u want to recirc, and HKS if you want to vent. Simple as that.

You cant VTA without fuel management because what you are doing is realeasing metered air. If you VTA all your going to get is a bog.
I have the type s recirculating and love it

This has been beaten to death in the past.. Re-circulated is the stock setup because the MAS has already counted the air that goes into the engine.. When you vent, the computer looks for that counted air, but it aint there anymore, so the engine wants to stall...
The Type-S is very loud.. If you remember the scene from TFAF in the beginning when Paul Walker is revving up the Eclipse, and you hear the blowoff going crazy, that's just what it sounds like..

I would suggest to use HKS SSQV for VTA...its uses two small n big springs to release that air, mine car running VTA rite now n have no stalling problem, its just a matter of self adjustment to the tension spring to ur driving needs, i've posted one topic on the HKS adjustment setting when VTA. But in the near future i'm gonna try recycle the vented air back to the intake...see how the car responds.
*Another fact dat i want to recircle it back to the intake because theoritically when high press air is vente
d to low press at sudden & thru small opening, the air is very much colder, therefore give that little extra cool to the turbo turbine*
Offcourse VTA will run ur car at rich, u can see that if u have A/F ratio meter setup ( Autometer gauges )

HKS SSQV a way to go
nice sound too

hey i do have hks bov installed on mine, love the sound but HATE the stalling problem! the engine automatically shut down twice in this week for me due to the stalling problem! i was thinking of getting the hks afr to fix the idle problem that cozin the stalling thing; the afr cost 210, but to tune and install that thing cost me 450!
dang not a very nice option
i was thinking of removing the hks bov of mine and change to either blitz or stock anyhow i heard there are some leaking problem on the blitz bov for evo8? is that true ?
