Within the next couple of days I think I will be order the synapse synchronic BOV and was just wondering if anyone had any first hand experiences with it.


While checking out their products, their wastegate cought my attention as well with the claim "elimate boost creep." Granted I don't have much boost creep (about ~2psi atm) but I was toying with the idea of trying this wastegate to see how it is. Does anyone use this on their s2k?

 

i had been looking into this and using the recirculating feature to run the air back into the system. I have seen the videos, and it looks to be a quality piece, but do not have any personal with it!

 

Why recirculate with a speed/density system using an EMS? Its not like the air is metered and then lost with an EMS setup.

When using a MAS such as a DSM MAS, we would have to recirculate due to running right between shifts or when letting off if we vented, but as far as I know you shouldn't need one unless you're trying to quite your BOV.

 

I have their FPR and it is a well made and designed part. I knew they have this in the pipe and I can only expect it to be as good as their other products.

 

i've built a setup using their 50mm wg for someone else. i'll be getting their products for my next boost build.

 

i was discussing this with my boss and he says that in an event of a failure such as the piston in the wastegate seizes, if it seizes closed it would lead to over boost where in a Tial if the diaphram tears you just dont boost. kinda reminds me of blitz bov's. they seize...

 

Any more specific comments on it


Worst comes to worst in that situtation, you have an engine load rev limiter with the AEM EMS

 

Damn straight, that load limiter has saved my ass once.

this is not possible since there is no metal to metal contact. your boss needs to research the product a little more. their design is more efficient, durable, reliable and consistent than any diaphragm wg out there.
