BOV Opinions
I have been looking around for a BOV for the Eclipse. I noticed a lot of people have the Greddy Type S BOV. Is it really worth the $200 ? I see a lot of Blow off valves that are way cheaper and have the same stats as the Type S. Oh yeah its gotta be loud
 , I dont wanna feel like driving the RS again and besides I am addicted to the sound. Greddy type S = $200 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GREDD...spagenameZWDVW Greddy Type RS = $85 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GREDD...ayphotohosting Some Chrome BOV = $50 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Blow-...06090739QQrdZ1

Re: BOV Opinions

RS won't recirculate unless you buy the adapter for it. Type S will recirculate right out of the box. The type RS is supposedly better and can hold more boost than the type S. I'm happy with my type S.
EDIT: the RS bov link you have there is a knock-off. It isn't Greddy. I wouldn't trust any knock-offs from ebay.

Re: BOV Opinions
I've run the RS and the S on my car before. I like them both, they both hold boost just fine, supposedly the RS can hold more boost, but I"m not boosting that high anyway. In any case, don't buy the knock-off's from Ebay, they usually destroy themselves within a month or so. (I've seen this in person) Go with the S or Type RS, if you're going to vent, make sure you vent properly, if you vent without a GM MAF + TRANSLATOR you will run pig rich inbetween shifts!!!! The Type S is a whistle and the RS is like a "pssshhhhh"

Re: BOV Opinions
I'm pretty happy with my HKS, although i highly recommend getting the recirculation kit for it.

Re: BOV Opinions
Get the type S...it's great at holding streetable boost and sounds the nicest.

Re: BOV Opinions
Whatever happened to the whole "sleeper" idea? I would personally want something quiet... then again, I've dumped the exhaust at the end of the downpipe. lol

Re: BOV Opinions
I liked my Tial alot.
If or whenever I go back to turbo. Tial is my choice. Subtle when cruising, defined when boosted.

Re: BOV Opinions
Is a GM MAF and Translator the only way to blow atmosphere without having to worry about running too rich?
