SYNAPSE Synchronic DV

So I received my Synchronic DV yesterday...and I wanted to write a short write up/review about it...

It came in a nicely packaged box, with 2 DSPORT 2011 Calendars! (note the hot chicks featured in the calendar!) lol


Opened up the Synapse Box and here are the package contents:


Awesome design, made sure that mine came with both types of connections...either nickel plated fittings or Synapse's Boost Connect Kit...










Installed the Evo Flange Kit...it was a small hassle to get the clamps to come off enough to fit the flanges on...but its very straight forward. Just be sure to install the gaskets in the DV before putting the flanges in the inlet/outlet(s)...




I opted to use the nickel plated fittings...I installed the fittings with some teflon tape...I forgot to take a picture of it with the fittings installed...I was too excited to install it! LOL

heres a pic of how it is installed...(note how stealthy it looks under the upper radiator hose...its awesome!):


I installed mine just like how the stock DV is installed and I chose to use only Port B and have Port A open to vent to air.

I did not have to adjust any of the pre-load. I basically pulled it out of the box, installed it and it works! Very tiny to NO flutter when Im trying to cause it to flutter.

This DV is the shiznit.

That is all.


GREAT WORK SYNAPSE!!!

Are there any performance benefits over the orginal bov?

holds MUCH more boost with little to no flutter.

HIGHLY recommended!

Wow I didn't realize how much they changed their BOV. I have the older Synapse model that's much larger. I'm tempted to buy this newer one.

I've heard the exact opposite which is why I ended up buying the original big ole' ****. Looking forward to seeing if anyone else can verify these claims.

This product reminds me of the APS Twin Vent.

I've had mine on for a week. ZERO flutter and holds boost great. When I bought the car a month ago it had a Turbosmart on it. Night and day difference between the two.
