Ka-t greddy type-s bov

Post by Keyton37 »

So we are building a ka-t and I bought a used greddy type s Bov which probably wasn't smart and I did no research on it :/ now that I have, is it only for a recirculated system? I can't just vent it to the atmosphere? if I were to just go and get a new like hks sqv, those vent to atmosphere, any help would be awesome

Any bov just about, recirculated or not, can be used open atmosphere dump. Just don't connect the outlet to anything.

Alright! do you know anything about specifics of the greddy type s Bov? What about that second little vacuum port that is diagonal?

Sometimes bov's have 2 ports, one for purely boost, like from the turbo, the other for vacuum, like an intake manifold. The boost only line Is supposed to help with response or something but shouldnt be necessary. Just run one line from your intake manifold to one of the ports till it works lol.

***I don't know why my second image keeps getting blocked, its a diagram of where the two ports should go to. If its still blocked, heres the link: http://www.stealth316.com/images/greddysopensm.jpg

Just connect the top port to a vacuum source and you should be good.

I found some posts saying there are a lot of fake Greddy Bov in eBay. Can anyone give tips on how to look for the genuine ones

You can just not use the blow off valve if you don't like it. That's what my brother did with his ebay bov. Just blocked it off. Typical tuzzio using his favorite sarcastic link.
