Greddy type RS BOV question..

i bought this BOV from a guy with an evo.. i installed it in my car and my idle keeps on fluctuating.. i ignored it coz my car sounded nicer but when i was redlining on the freeway, my car kept on dying out on me..

i also noticed that the BOV can be adjusted from "soft" to "hard".. do you guys have any tips on my problem?? do i need to set it on soft or something since im only running 7psi?? any help would be appreciated! thanks!!

oh yea, im running it recirculated.. the BOV came with the adapter.. (not sure if this info helps)

+1^ you want very little preload. While you're in there take a good look at the diaphragm,, they tend to fall apart.

im not really familliar with BOVs.. so my questions might sound extremely stupid..
what is the max piston travel?? should i just take out the small spring and leave the large on there?? my car is only a lancer oz rally, so im not sure if evo setups would work.. also, do type-s and rs work the same??
