Default A number of people have run it, and its probably what >>>

I will run next. I think a lot of the Jap valves are a LOT better than the Forge - BUT I will say that I have just had a really weird time with DVs etc - I owned 2 forge valves an had issues with both. When I was on stock turbo, stock DV worked the best, and held boost fine. When I went to new turbo, straight BOV works great, except it does run rich on decel/shift.

Default Only about 3 years now...>

A Diverter valve and a BOV are essentially the same thing... Classically a DV recirculates and a BOV blows off to atmoshpere, but operationally they are identical. Greddy is best known as a "BOV" but works exceptionally well in re-circ mode...

Greddy S with re-circ kit:

Default It's not a bad day for a monday

The Quagmire got himself suspended/deleted or whatever and boastedTT claims to be on a self-imposed break from this board.
HE got fed up dealing with US. Go figure.

Default Could be that we've witnessed a rare brain delamination

As the Journal of Neurotrauma posits:

The loss of microvascular basal lamina antigen is known to be a consequence of cerebral ischemia, but little information is available on its role in traumatic brain injury (TBI). (J Neurotrauma. 2003 Aug;20(8):745-54.)
