Any problems with greddy rz bov??

Hey guys, was going to get a ETS 3.5" intercooler kit, ETS intake, and greddy RZ bov then tune.

Does anyone here have a greddy RZ? Any issues with leak or anything?

Only other mod I have is greddy exhaust.

I have a Greddy on my car. It came with it when i bought the car. I had to play around with the adjust knob a bit to find a good point. My car doesnt have the typical BOV "PFFFFFF", its more like a "pff, pff, pff" Sounds a little like a horse. Doesnt bog down or anything so I will deal with it untill i redo the whole system. Ive actually grown acustomed to it

Wait, why are you wanting a new BOV? You do not need one. The stocker one is fine for a good amount of boost. I don't think you're hitting 28+ psi. Just stick with the stock one. If you have an VIII and you have the black plastic bov, change it to the Metal IX bov, that will be better and cheaper.

And if you're wanting the "sound" of the bov, then by all means get the Greddy one. it's all up to you. Just thought i save you some money, ha.

I think all BOVs will have some spring issues after long term use. But other than that if your buying a new one you should be fine. Like the post above said, even if you are hitting 28 psi the stock ix one is usually still good . A VTA BOV makes your car drive really ****ty, my car use to stall out with the HKS BOV . If you really wanted some sound just get an intake it will make the sound louder GL.
