Turbo XS RFL BOV questions - SRT Forums

SRTrent · 11-14-2008, 12:08 AM

Do you guys think it is worth it to buy this BOV? Is this BOV reliable/does it leak? I've heard some bad things about it but doesn't it just depend on how you install it really?

two meanings for the rfl

really fin leaky
really fin loud

no seriously i had it on my car for a long time. i put a couple of washers in it and i never had problems with it leaking. i loved it but i like my hks ssqv 10 times better

washers come with it or you buy them separate? i like the sound of all of the BOV's but i like the sound of the RFL and the Mopar blue plate the best + most people have either HKS or Greddy...

i have the type H and its hold up nicely, loud but i guess not as loud as the RFL

For the money the RFL is hard to beat. I ran it for a couple of years until I started to really push the car up in power and switched to the Tial. Just shim it with the washers included with it and clean it regularly and it will work just fine.

Where are you picking yours up? I haven't found any shops that carry it

I have run it for 3 years now and its not leaky at all. I hold all the boost no problem. You just need to adjust it so its fairly stiff when you use it with a big turbo. You dont need it quite as tightly adjusted with the stock turbo.
