anyone using the Greddy Type RS ??

i need to know if this BOV is compatible with the V2, i did search and its all hear and say stuff from 3 years ago. does anyone know for a FACT or through first hand experience if this bov is free off headaches before i dump the $200 on it?

Your better off going with the Vortech bov or the Blitz DD. The greddy is alittle on the small too, that's why I sold it off my turbo S13 240sx. And what ever you do don't get the HKS ssqv, because it surges too much and it also blew the seals in my blower.... Time for a rebuild

Greddy's are definetly a bit on the small side. The RS is a bit larger than the Type-S but I havent really seen nor heard the RS to tell ya. I had a Type S and really had to adjust it perfect to get NO surge on the blower and still was an issue on deceleration. Just doesnt move enough air out.

I would definetly recommend the Greddy Race Blow off valve. Its a great bov and moves a good amount of air. It also mounts right onto the Greddy Flange

Shoot me a PM, I may have one for sale.

well isnt the greddy race made for 400+ hp apps. i just talked to greddy and the guy fed me bs. i asked him if the RS is good for sc apps and right away he said YES. i asked him to throw me some facts as to why and he didnt have any. the spring rate is for 8lbs - 16 and i asked him what happens when the sc makes 3 psi boost. he was like, ummm i guess its sensetive enough for that too.

i think ill give the blitz DD a try since its a dual for low and high psi. fun part is new piping.

The greddy type R (the racing one) might be good, but I always see it on high HP cars like my mechanics 10second rx7, and he's making 600+whp.

That's double what my car makes to the wheels...lol

i think i found out what it is. the barbed hose in the BOV for vacuum line, i think its overtightened and the other end is too far into the bov. imma go buy a deep 10mm to loosen it and see if it opens up.
