which 1 better HKS type 2 racing bov or Greddy/Type R bov

[Gtiiiii_01]

Which one better hks racing bov or Greedy/trust type R? and... Does GFB bov be used 4 hi boost application

 

[jinkl]

both BOV's can hold high boost
if u want to really hold high boost , greddy type-r has a stiffer spring version with request , im nt sure shops in malaysia has them

in terms of BOV design , im more confident with the HKS for drag purpose only
bt in terms of daily drive , its sure the type-r , because at low boost , u can dream for that hks to open up , bt the type-r would open up because its designed that way.

thanks 4 the reply. but do u know bout gfb bov? does meant 4 high boosting as well?

try Turbosmart Raceport.. built for race purpose and will take any amount of boost

SDF, spreading poison... very nice the BOV... i like turbosmart too... wanna to get the fuel regulator.. and not sure what price is that...:hmmmm::hmmmm:

the greddy type-r is for sure to surge , the turbosmart is also high boost application
go get a synapse bov :P , it will open up even at 0.1bar , and it will still close shut at 3bar without leak :P , eliminates compressor surge after i changed to it, it won sema awards & etc , also have started to be used on drag cars , feel free to view the videos at youtube , bt warning, its not suitable for MAF fitted cars, so is the Turbosmart , both turbosmart and synapse will leak at idle , if u r having a MAF fitted car, "stall"

well..turbosmart raceport has a "street" setting spring set for road cars with alot of vacuum. So yea..it'll work on street and MAF cars too.

 

[jinkl]

i guess , turbosmart mechanism is similar to tial's
requires spring change if setup has changed and vacuum differs

sorry to ask again but wat about GFB bov? looks like it's quite good isn't?

i personally hate GFB... kekkekee
i bought a used boost controller from one forumer... use allenkey to adjust that... i bring back sabah and use.. can boost 1psi increase only... kanasai... actuallly is the o ring of the controller nipis liao...
this the problem maybe u need to always change the o ring ... after i throw it liao.... i bought a Trust greddy manual boost controller after ward with rm200.. so far i bought 3 to used on different car of mine and one for my friend... total got 4..
so far no problem, no need service.. from lowest boost of ur car setting to maximum i adjust 2.1bar...

there are still many choice out there... i not sure about GFB BOV good or not , because i not yet use it be4.. see what ur requirement racing use.. i think HKS type 2 racing or Greddy Type R/ Turbo Smart race port is suitable for u

thanks 4 the reply bro... still thinking bout it. the problem with this 2 bov it still do the compressor surge during the low boost which could harm the turbo in the long term.

Bump:

the greddy type-r is for sure to surge , the turbosmart is also high boost application
go get a synapse bov :P , it will open up even at 0.1bar , and it will still close shut at 3bar without leak :P , eliminates compressor surge after i changed to it, it won sema awards & etc , also have started to be used on drag cars , feel free to view the videos at youtube , bt warning, its not suitable for MAF fitted cars, so is the Turbosmart , both turbosmart and synapse will leak at idle , if u r having a MAF fitted car, "stall"

may i ask how much you bought it and the reseller here in malaysia.....

as Gtiiiii_01 sez, heard about it....and amazed with its response...perfect for recirculating bov perhaps?

hahahha ok ok...Fully understood hehe..I think no one else in Malaysia or this forum is using Synapse or so called Synchronized blow off vale. Perhaps you can share your experience of why is this BOV better than other so called "high boost" BOV.

Surge and boost leak is common at those people boosting high, or shall i call people with high level of CFM in their turbo. The famous BOV used by the car owners for high CFM applications are either Greddy Type S or type R, which also justified with their price. With stiffer spring and adjustable level, the 2 above mentioned BOV does provide excellent performance BOV for high boost applications. Care to share how the synchronized BOV (synapse) differs from the 2 BOV? Let's only compare the performance of both being vented to atmosphere, not being re circulated.

your view are highly appreciated, Jinkl...hehehe
