I went through a real greddy typeS and a knock off typeS before I bought my 1g BOV. Both the knock off and the Greddy leaked.

The Greddy that came on the car had exactly 10k mi. on it when I bought the car. I didn't know it was leaking until I got DSMLink and I started monitoring airflow. I did a few boost leak tests and I couldn't find anything. So I bumped the PSI up and it pushed the valve open on BOV. Then, the knock offs diaphram split 3 weeks after I installed it.

I hear the SSQV knock offs aren't as bad, but you must recirculate them (like mentioned before, HKS sells the recirc kit) They each sound a little different, videos of each can be seen on youtube.

My advice;
Sell the knock off then buy a 1g BOV, and call it a day. When you are ready to run more boost all you have to do is "crush" it. Crushing the 1g bov compresses the spring that holds the relief valve closed. It simulates a firmer spring, and is the equivilent to the <---Hard Soft---> screw on some Blow off Valves.

1g BOV can be bought new from Mitsubishi for around $100 but used ones can be found for less than $20. "DodgeGarage" modified a 1g BOV and they are running 30psi with a little crushing and a single drill hole.

 

yea thinking of staying auto dont need the turbo to spool up every gear shift

but i am looking for a 1g with the thing you put it on for my ssqv

 

i have a 1g flange if thats what you mean...

 

i dont know what i need lol

 

how about ill sell you the upper i/c hardpipe with 1g bov on it for 30 plus stock ic piping...if anything u might need some new couplers but ill hook it up for you..the pipe and elbow are red...

 

do WHAT???

i would think releasing the throttle and idling should do the same thing......

 

send me pic or post

 

it is the same feeling as bov being slightly open...throttle response goes down until the car comes to a dead stop and then you can do it all over again..i dont really kno if thats whats happening but i kno it only happened with type rs

 

i think my last eclipse had a type rs sounded lik it i know it wasnt recirculated it never did anything like that to me

 

here they are....



and paint is scratched in some spots...if you want i can give you the paint too and you could do it yourself...
