Thanks will check it out but I was more interested in a hks at the $100 mark.

The Tial BOV is the last one you will ever buy, they use springs to control pressure and the BOV can grow as your needs change as well as having 1 of the largest valves at 50MM on the market in a price range that makes sense.
I run 2 of them do 30psi of boost on a 74mm with a 1.25 rear housing divided and I have 0 compressor surge.
My other car had the same Tial BOV and Gate for over 9yrs and still is operational today as I still see the car regularly.
This sounds great I have been buying all quality mechanical components for my turbo build because I dont want to be going back replacing everything again over and over. I will check out tial bov on ebay.

GL with that.
Yep I want surge sound without the surge...

Are sequential better quality than standard bov or just a different method of release?

Why is synapsis so good? I will check those out too.

Same thing why is synapse so good? Same type of quality reputation as tial?

LISTEN no SURGE.
Sounds like quality to me. I am only going to run 1 bov though.

1 BOV is fine for now put it between the turbo and the intercooler on the passenger side of the car it will allow the fastest release of pressure on shift change or letting off the throttle.

Because this is a street car and in australia all bov must be recirculated. I got 10psi I think. Bought it new in box off someone who never used it for their project.

Oh learn something new You might however might want to consider a smaller spring pressure.

Does 10psi mean it will not let air out until the pressure inside the intercooler hoses etc are 10psi or above? I mean vacuum is at negative 10psi? I dont get it. Should it not be instant on vacuum hence less than.1psi?

What's your setup you have? Are you making 700 on pump and meth? And who runs a t3 flange? Guess whoever installed your sh#t sucks if you f#cked your precision turbo up.

No ^^^^^^^^^^^^ I'm not the idiot making 700 on pump an meth! E-85 Cost less!!!!!!!!

No Precision (precussion) here Rocket scientist!!!!!

Hes on a T-3 OP. I run over 850 on E. Check the Signature and let me know when your feeling preppy again.

So I guess brains are not your strong point there skippy or else you would know a 74 MM with a 1.25 rear is beyond your comprehension

FYI: I make over 700 in torque big boy!!!!!!!!!!!
