^^ Hilarious. People need to read before trying to flex.
I had a HKS SSQV running strong for about 4 years until I sold the car. Loved the sound but yea, they are mostly fake anywhere now. If you're not paying 200 or more your getting hosed, even then, theres really no way to tell until it's installed, buy direct bro

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!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm feeling preppy now. How long did you have your synapse again? or are you an internet warrior?
I'd love to see your power under the curve with your 74mm BTW. Full boost at what, 6k?

I'm cool on E85 when there are only 2 gas stations in my area that have it, and it sucks on start up in the winter in the northwest and i wouldn't be able to travel out of my area.

I have never had a Synapse BOV nor would I ever have on but have removed enough of them to replace with TIAL And real world experience over most internet jockeys. But here is a video for your viewing pleasure
Before I give you your request of my as you say 6k full boost you might want to consider/ Carillo H beams Carr bolts, CP 9 to 1 pistons, 210 pins, Billet mains, full ARP studded bottom L-19's , 1MM over In and out Ferrea with all supporting Ferrea dual springs, locks, keepers, guides, Kelford 274 cams 9.45 lift and shimless toyota buckets full port of head, intake plenum runners and exhaust all going through a VW Mani, DP,mid pipe on dual Tial 44's and dual Tial bov's
My soft cut is 9000rpm and my hard cut is 9500rpm.s All through a Getrag
Now for your Amusement. IT SUCKS HAVING 4000 RPMS OF BOOST IN EVERY GEAR.

Here is my .02...for the OP
1) An HKS was the best solution for its time, did the job for it's application which was mainly an upgrade to stock turbo cars. No added power just a cute whistle that alerted the lead footed that you were on boost, yet still slow. Back in the day when cars were making serious power the BOV of choice was the Greddy Godzilla, for us who have been around that long know exactly which one. Enough about that
2) Synapse is Garbage. I was one of the first in South florida to have it and in addition was one of the first to figure out the configuration to work and not surge in JZ motors. Problem was when I turned up the wick all the hype went right out the window and the Synapse could not keep up with the demand. So in short , out went the synapse and in came the Tial. if they were to make a bigger one it would hold up in the arena that we play in, but until then Garbage as far as me and most of us reading this here is concerned.
3)Get a Tial, Look around and see what the big boys are running. Most only run 1 and don't need a second. Those who run 2 mainly do it for added safety. Better to spend 250 then 2500 replacing a turbo. Nuff Said.
..... and Vinny, you outta line. Most of us here been building these cars in our backyards and blowing them up at our own expense, figuring out Chit so when people here ask we can speak from our own experience and not give them BS that they read in Supraforums or heard from Billy from down the street. Humility goes a long way and keeps you from looking like an A.Ss.
