Will any other bov's fit the greddy flange? I don't like the Greddy RS bov, it flutters really bad and its pissin me off...or if you have any suggestions to fix it, feel free. Im runnin 8psi with the soft spring in only.

Im running the type rs...my opinion is its a bov for higher boosting car, right now im only runnin 8psi and it flutters like a mofo

Turbonetics Raptor. I know nothing of it's performance however so I couldn't give you an opinion on it.

I've never had luck with either the RS or the Type S. For me it always caused flutter with quicker spooling turbo's that were on the smallish side or they just leak when you're closing in on ~18-20psi of boost.
The inner ricer in me always loved the sound of a Greddy Type S but the piece of shit leaked constantly and/or fluttered. I thought the RS would be better but it wasn't on the flutter issue and it sounded like ass so I hucked that too.
Currently I'm running the HKS SSQ blow off valve. It's a very nice unit that sounds similar to my beloved Type S. More importantly though it did quite a few good things for me:
- Eliminated my flutter - Snap Ring // O-Ring install. There is no way this bitch is leaking. - I got the newer unit that doesn't need adjusting. Tee into the charge pipe source and go.

RFL uses a different flange doesnt it? just trade your rs for the type s and use only the smaller spring mine is just fine and im 10psi, to me sounds alot better than the rs and i get zero flutter. other than that i dont know of any others that mount to that flange sept maybe the 3000gt one? its similar but not sure if its the same? other than that just have anothe flange of your choice welded on shouldnt cost you more than 20 bucks. ive heard the rfl is nice but dont know joe

I have a type rs on a stage 1 hahn kit @ 5psi. It fluttered really bad, then I just popped it open and set the large spring aside and now I get absolutely no flutter. Just adjust the bov the hardest it will go without surging.

I have found flanges that adapt the RFL to the greddy, but the RFL is so freakin tall...i don't think it would fit under the hood
