Hey guys my cousin owns an 89 second gen .. he just bought a Greddy Type R BOV and he was wondering if there is any modifications needed to install it onto the car.. does it need to be fabricated in any way or is it a direct blot on.... ????

 

you need a flange.

 

mmm, should have gotten something that doesnt suck in air at idle. you rmost likley gonna have problems with that when you get it on, well i know i did when i put one on my car and thats what hear too

 

DId he get the bolt on kit or a universal one with a weld on flange?

 

yeah I think the type r is made for rehicles pushing more than 20psi isn't it??? I thought the type s was for less boost.

 

He got the universal one..

 

if you have a type s bov what boost levels can you go to with it? would it be good for 12psi?

 

yeah I'm making 12psi easy and I have a type S.

 

would it be good for 250-300 rwhp is the only time you should upgrade the type s is when you go to 20psi or is there a hp maximum for it

 

I'm no expert on bov's but from doing some searches I've found the type r is good for higher boost cars and thats about as much as I know.

 

Yes the Greedy Type R is for cars boosting 20 PSI or more.
The Type S is the one you want for your car. I have the Type S
and it works great. I called Greedy up, and they told me that the type R
is or higher boost applications.

 

agreed.
My greedy S held 20 PSI daily on my eclipse gsx. Rock solid too.

I used it for a few dyno runs on teh race gas and 24 PSI. Didn't experience any problems with it.

The Greddy S is very popular with the eclipse turbo crowd. The Greddy type R should be used if you plan to run more than 20PSI on a regular basis.
