What BOV for 350~400awhp?

Hi,
what do you guys choose for a 350~400awhp with 1.6~1.8 bar of boost on a GT3076R to eliminate Surge?

1) Synapse - Synchronic DV Kit
2) Turbosmart Race Port
3) Tial QR

Thanks

The Works and Tomei dv can handle 1.8 - 2 bar. Any reason why you arent considering those? They are oem style so they should get you the best part throttle driveability.

I only have experience with the synapse but I've been very pleased with it. Between the port configurations, and the fact it can be configured for push or pull gives you many different setup options for your style of driving and your setup.

9 bov. I'm at 380 and mine isn't crushed, holds boost great. If it leaks, crush it. I've had ZERO luck with all other bov's. If I had to choose an aftermarket one, I'd go with Synapse since all I hear is good things.

Same here 28psi.... if you get the Synapse DV with aby spring from mils-spec , its hard to believe you can't find the setup which gives your car the stock feel it should. My setup is amazing.

What do you mean?

The difference is just how you install the valve (configuration), there is only one valve. It allows you to adjust it and tune it for your system since every setup will vary depending on various parts.
