Help choosing BOV

[kanderson111]

I've recently replaced my turbo and done supporting mods, upon testing for boost leaks I discovered my stock BOV leaks at about 15 lbs. This is ok for now but I will be turning up the boost as soon as I order my FMIC. My question is what kind of BOV will hold up to 24 lbs of boost and can still recirculate. I was looking into the Greddy type S, but I don't know if this one can recirculate. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

The Greddy Type-S does recirculate and you will not be disappointed with it's holding power or sound.

Might be tough to find one too so you better start looking they are discontinued now. I had to buy an RS and mod the thing to recirc. Appearantly there is a kit now to do it.

theres a link to the greddy type rs its for a 95-99 but has both recirc and vented option for $6 if you ever plan to do a MAFT blow through or you can just buy the recirc with it for normal price

also another BOV you might wanna look at

Thanks for the help guys. The reason I have to make up my mind pretty quick is because the FMIC kit I'm ordering from Slowboy, asks for the BOV flange type you want welded on. Im leaning towards the Greddy because there is no extra charge for the Greddy flange, and it sounds like people are pretty satisfied with it.

Greddy Type-S will work great for you.

I would say get a tial and never look back but if you dont have a maft go with the greddy. The type s is great. look for one on ebay.

Proper crushing/modification of your stock 1G BOV will put you in the area of 20-25psi.

eww do not get the Greddy...

Honestly you should get a hks ssqv and the recirc kit is cheap...

Otherwise I would say a Tial

Go with the Greddy Type RS-I just installed it and it works great. It has a larger valve than the Type S (40mm vs. 37mm) and a stronger spring. I have a full hardpipe w/Greddy flange, so I just purchased the Universal Greddy Type RS BOV Kit ($179) and the outlet adapter ($15).
