forge bpv or hks bpv

[MikeHTally]

I put a Forge on mine. Frankly, I'm not sure if it did anything for performance (it does seem to hold boost longer, but that might be me hoping to justify $155), but it does sound cool. (cool)

Mike, maybe your right foot needs recalibrated (stash)

Whats the difference between the greddy type s and the rs?

 

[Bonafide_Spd3]

So the only difference between the two is that the type s has a 38mm valve and the type rs has a 40mm valve? And the type rs has a more of a psshhh sound? I think they said the rs is just a bov and doesn't recirculate? Correct?

The type-s gives whistle sounds, and even in recir mode still whistles. At full boost and fast releases, you get a whip crack sound with the whistle. I love mine, loved it more vta, but I can live with recirc.

The GReddy type-rs is more of a mopar bov sound. It gives you a very nice "air exiting" sound. Where the turbo xs 50/50 has small holes and gives the whip crack sound, the rs will give you the whooshing sound. Actually, this one also sounds really really good recirculated. When I eventually get tired of the type s, I will probably buy an rs.

The type RS gives the whoosh sound as opposed to the pssssst sound like the type s

you CAN recirculate the r/s tho, bot for that one you would have to buy the adapter and you twist off the blow horn on the side and twist on the adapter, which gives you the neck that extends outward so you can fit your hose over the edge. But the type-s already has the neck that sticks out as opposed to the horn, so you don't need an adapter:

here is the type-s connected and recirculated, see the stock tube would go over the neck like this one in the picture:

the RS has this little horn on the outside, that you remove and put on a straight neck to recirculate it:

so for the RS you have to buy this fitting to recirculate it and screws on in place of teh horn:

I had to get the adapter for my type-s and then trim the recirc hose. Just finished the single mod, retuned, and it works fantastically. Sounds pretty decent too!

told you mang, single spring mod it, and you're good to go. Mine is getting louder as the spring is wearing in more and getting used to the tension. I still want to see a pic of yours to see how tight you have yours adjusted

 

[lestat13]

Here ya go. Just finished single spring mod and that is a real greddy-s in recirc. I knew it was too loose when after it would blow off I would get a moderately loud "blowing over the top of a bottle" sound. I tightened it just until I didn't get that sound anymore. Holds boost like a champ, spools up fine, and no issues. Same as UHATEIT, it is getting louder as it breaks in. The sound is like a mix between the GReddy type-s blow off (vta), an HKS or forge style clang, and sometimes gets the whip crack of a 50/50 turbo xs valve. Hey, I am a music teacher and I love sounds, get off my back

that looks great! I still need a drive-by video of yours! I'll make my wife take one for me. Yours is tightened about as much as my fake one was tigtened. I was thinking the "looser" it is the louder the whistle. But the tighter it is the quicker and tighter the sound but not as loud. We'll see I like my setting now but I might tighten it to see how it performs.

if you look up a few more posts and see the one of my real greddy installed, thats how it looked with the screws turned 3 times. But up further in the thread the pic of the real one on the counter is how it was when it was just touching the top of the spring and no turns. Yours looks like 6-8 turns or so from first contact

Everytime I take one on my phone, you always hear air but never whistle. Eventually I will find someone with a camera that can do video and sound or something.... :\

 

[john blutarski]

You guys got me thinking about the Greddy RS now. I think I'll try it out.

the Greddy RS is more of the whoosh, the Greddy S is the one with the whistle sound

I wasn't able to find a video of a MS3 with Greddy RS anywhere so I guess I'll have to try it myself.

My camera = the sex

Where in MD are you? I'm always going up to Rockville and would like to hear the GReddy in action ...

 

[Bonafide_Spd3]

That would be prety pimp to hear some sound clips of the rs. I think the type s still sounds really good. I'll probably end up going with the type s. Thanks for all the info everyone

 

[ericrapp]

You of course understand you owe us all a video w/sound after install of yours!

 

[Bonafide_Spd3]

uhateit where did you order your greddy type s bpv at?

 

[lestat13]

I live nearish Columbia, but I work about 45 to an hour away in Gaitherburg, but grew up in the college park area where all my friends live and where I work on saturdays. Sporadic enough for you Coolwhip, we should meet up sometime, Rockville sounds good. I usually get off work around 7pm on Saturdays, so like an 8pm meet would be perfect. The s in recirc sounds surprisingly good!!

UHATEIT and I both got ours used. I think he hit up ebay and I got mine from craigslist. they stopped making them a while ago so you gotta grab one second hand.
