Here I go beating a dead horse again.

However, went to pull the smaller spring due to the adjustment screw backed all the way out and still getting surge/flutter.

I Assumed it was a knock off greddy bov as there's no Greedy stamp or sticker anywhere. After popping the top I noticed the diaphram. Prior to disassembly, I did some research and the diaphram doesn't appear to be a NGR which the case of the BOV looks more like a NGR than a Greedy. However, the diaphram looks more like a Greedy than a NGR or eBay special.

After tearing the bov completely down, I noticed a lot of black rtv which doesn't seem to be factory or very professional.

The only thing I can come up with after taking in the rtv, the off brand looking body, but Greedy style diaphram is the previous owner swapped the old one out for a greedy? Would that be a logical assumption, or am I completely wrong?

P.s I cleaned up all the rtv before taking the picture.

first of all its GREDDY!!! its not hungry and wants food LOL

and its a fake man, he most likely bought a fake and it was not original in the first place! its not an NGR diaphragm as they are red in color, the Greddys are black but woven and yours just looks all kinds of fake and even the adjusting screw is flat and not rounded at the bottom! either buy a real one or get an NGR unit but this is fake as they come and may or may not last you
 
sweet, Thanks guys.

Sorry for the horrible spelling, My android loves auto correcting and then proceeds to fight me. Greddy was freedy, then greedy, etc... when typing this out.

Just another reason to buy a aftermarket part I shouldn't have to waste money on :/
