Greddy Type S question

[bozzben]

Does anyone have the Greddy Type S on there MS3,i was wondering if you had any issues with it.

I did. And I had plenty of issues with it. I don't think it's a strong enough valve to hold boost on cars like ours to be quite honest. I had the adjustment screw threads strip twice and decided to just take it off and put the freakin' stocker back on. Wish I kept my forge.

i have one, too, no problems for me tho. bought it used and the previous owner had no problems either. i heard of the thread stripping when somebody didn't loosen the locking nut first. what kind of issues are you experiencing? could be adjustment related. start with a softest setting and start going up until you start getting compressor surge, then back off a little and it should work perfectly.

I recently installed a greddy type-s bov and was giving me some problems at first with the whole adjustment of the screw but i just gave up and tighten it all the way down and apparently that did the trick . . . does take a while for the turbo to spool up faster in my opinion but the sound is great but i prefer the power . . . i might be getting rid of it soon and trying to jump on a dual port or a forge
quick question to, if anyone does have a greddy type-s on there's how tight do you have it??? (uhm)

I had one on mine and I had no issues. It just takes some driving and tuning to make it perfect. I started at the hardest setting and worked my way to loose until I got it to sound and perform right.I wanna say I had it a few turns under half half way when I had my stock tmic, sri, and dp back exhaust.
