No... Turbo XS is a very repuatable company... alot of people run thier stuff. Like the RFL blow off valves.

That's right. I have their Type H BOV and it appears to be top notch in its build quality. All metal design with a slick piston in the middle. I'm VERY pleased with it! :thumbsup

The sound is VERY inimidating, but not obnoxious.

i have the TurboXS RFL too. it's featured in my sig. i've taken it apart a few times to clean and lubricate it, and it's design and materials used are top notch. the think looks kinda like a scientific instrument when you take it apart. i highly reccomend their products.

EDIT: the only issue i've noticed with it is the rubber rings near the top on the outside of the thingy. i bought the BOV last october, and they're already cracked and ready to fall off. however, they serve no usefull purpose other than to look cool and make taking the top off easier. then again, they went through a new england winter from hell complete with ice and salt being sprayed on it constantally.

from what i've heard, and seen, they're a pretty good company. their cars are in tons of photo shoots, etc. some of the evo guys are using one of their recirculating bov's and getting 4hp from it.

i met mark, the owner, when he bought his red evo from me a couple of months ago. very nice guy, and he's an engineer by trade. they also get a lot of their stuff from an australian partner - ie, land of sti's, evo's, etc. so their stuff has been put through the grinder overseas and makes it here when mark thinks there's a market for it.

from what i mark told me, their red evo will be in superstreet in about six months or so.
