I have my gtm supercharger 1.5 kit for 3 years and after constant issues with sticking and leaking turbosmart bpv I switched to qrj early this year. Zero flutter, hasn't showed any signs of sticking or leaking. I am very happy customer. There was nothing worse than stock closed valve during your track/autocross day. I would take it apart and clean the turbosmart at least once a month but extreme temps during track days or autocross would get the valve stick at any time. I'd recommend to bite the bullet and get the qrj.

I looked at the QRJ really hard but decided to go with the Q sport from what I have been told the Q sport was louder

New BOV is here hoping to have it installed by Saturday

How did you end up liking the new bov? I'm looking to get either a q or a qrj to replace my old turbosmart

I love 50mm tial....but like everyone says ...it is very loud and you will be heard from a long way. If I had to choose again ..I would still get the 50mm lol . Sounds awesome.

Haha sick, that is tempting. It runs fine though? My sticky old Turbosmart sounds fine I just hate taking my bumper off to clean it every 3 months!

No issues with the tial sticking at all ....and as far as the turbosmart ..I thought it sounded fine ..until I got the tial ..boy was I wrong , there isn’t any comparison

Thats awesome man I'm glad you're loving it. I'm think I'm gonna go for the 50mm as well, if I have to weld the pipe anyways may as well go big!

I have the Stage 2 GTM SC as well, and I'm also getting annoyed at always having to service the TS BOV. So to understand this right, you need to have a shop cut off the old flange and weld on the new flange? Same location?

Yes ..the tial uses a different flange. And yes same location

Thanks guys. Any reason you can't just use something like a silicone coupler and clamps to connect the Tial onto the TS flange? Easier than cutting and welding? Screw this onto the intake side of the QRJ and hose clamp it to the existing TS flange? https://www.jegs.com/i/TiAL-Sport/768/004492/10002/-1

Kinda like this picture? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...06b8e7a642.jpg

Also, since we're venting to atmosphere, I supposed I'd need something like this on the outlet side? https://www.jegs.com/i/TiAL-Sport/768/004806/10002/-1

I’m sure you could rig something ...but I wouldn’t recommend ...the idea is for the air to get out fast as possible ...that could cause lagggy response and chatter ..

axio 05-20-2018 01:38 PM

I mean I'd just connect it with a short tube so that the overall length is close to what it currently is. Maybe cut the tube to 2" or so. But you think the tube won't hold up to heat and pressure if I made it short? I figure the IC piping is connected by silicone couplers....
