greddy type r?

[just2asian]

Hey everyone, I did some research on blow off valves and didn't really find anything on the Greddy Type R. Does anyone even run that bov? I have a type s personally, but I don't hear about anyone running a type r ever. Is there a difference sound wise or performance wise?

The Type R is usually used on high-power output engines. This BOV is more for the "race car" and not for the daily drivers. But people do have them and use them on DSMs. The Type R's spring is also harder than the Type RS. If you have the right setup, I don't think you would experience any ill effects with the Type R, but I would not use it on lightly-modified DSMs because the valve may not open up as easy as the RS is made to. You can of course adjust both BOVs with the adjustment screw to make the valve easier or harder to open, so I suppose you could make a case there. But you should also remember that the Type R is physically taller than the Type RS, and this would mean hood clearence problems for some of us. The flanges on both BOVs are the same.

GReddy Type-R Compressor Bypass Valve

(Note: This valve replaced the Type-S shown below to better complement the higher volume of air moved by the HKS Sport Turbo and complement a new custom intake.
P/N 370131


(MA70 kit)
P/N 370101
(std spring valve)

P/N 370100
(stiff spring valve)
Completely replace stock valve with much higher flow valve (nearly double that of the Type-S below) and stiffer spring for higher boost levels. Better to handle the higher volume of a larger turbocharger as well.

Available Type-R Outlet Adapters:
P/N 370106 - 19-21mm
P/N 370107 - 28-35mm
P/N 370108 - 40mm
P/N 370109 - 45mm
Less shock load on compressor wheel during shifts = longer lasting turbo. Less boost lag between shifts




Available Upgrades:
P/N 370112 - Type-R Stiffer Spring

Remember that the Greddy Type S and Type RS are virtually the same physical size, so these comparisons are legitimate.

I can think of at least one guy on here who runs the GReddy Type R. "Paul S" has the Type R BOV on his car, but that crazy Canadian drives one built DSM, so maybe he shouldn't count...

J/K Paul!

Anyways, he wrote a review on the Type R, and (as suggested above) its meant for high-boost applications.
