I have the turboXs type-h bov. It opens fine above 5psi or so but anything under that I get a flutter or chatter from it. Does this mean the spring is to tight? Or is it to loose?

Your getting flutter because u aren't pushing enough boost thru your system to make it Blow off. It just slowly seeps out. I'm assuming its too tight. Anyone?
Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related. Step 1: Put down everything in your hands. Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it. Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you. If not. Go here: here
If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.

I've got the Type H-RFL on my HRC stage I... It blows off fine at any boost lvl, it will blow off revving to 4k rpms in neutral and is audible while driving even at 1 psi or so...

do you have the vacuum line from it directly pluggled into the intake manifold? this really helps. my bov now blows out air at any psi instead of stuttering at really low psi.

I tried the Type-RS on my car and I couldn't get it to blow off without sounding like a damn turkey. Tried loosening it a bunch, didn't help. I even took the smaller spring out inside of it like I did with my Type-S and it still didn't help. IMO, the Type-RS is meant for higher boost applications. My cousin has the RS on his EVO now and it works great for him, of course he is boosting around 20 psi.

Greddy products are far from "crap" IMO.
I have used them for years with no problems.
Run a seperate vacuum line to it and I bet it changes.
Also, you low boost guys should remove the harder spring from it as well.

I had no problems what so ever with my type s. Sounded pretty sweet. I strayed away from greddy cause of the leaking problem I've heard of when they open too soon. Now I have a HKS SSQV and I feel like it stutters all the time. I can't decide if i like the sound of it. Even at higher boost when I know it's really opening. Not quite the sound I'm looking for I think.

I have the brand new designed HKS super SQV, and it blows off just fine I used to have the old style and it would shutter. from my understangs thats called turbo surge. and isnt good. try using a lighter spring rate..or get the new style...looks fucking sweet.

Harder spring as in the smaller spring of the two (inside the other bigger one)?
