Default what happened to synapse wastegates and BOV?

remember a while back they were preaching they were the Ish.. but the search function is down and was interested to see how well they actually work or if its just a hyped product that completely failed.

I've had the BOV for like 8 months now, works great.

I just put one of their wastegates on today. Couldn't be happier.

Synapse products.

No they're not hard at all. Just have to T a few vacuum lines and read the instructions carefully as they do not work like any other unit on the market.

Oh and before you ask, yes you can use a EBC on the wastegate.

Google is your friend here. Kinda weird how there's nothing at all here on HT.

Can't find much on the wastegates. But it seems like everyone with the BOVs love them and think that they're the holy grail.

There's a forum on their site with instructions for setting up there stuff http://www.synapseengineering.com/smf/

Some people just dont learn... dude got banned for MULTIPLE accounts before and he is back at it agian here.

Given his histoy of making threads and then using his other dupe accounts to further them on promoting his product/ bashing tial and others/ etc, its probably not the only one he has either.

good choice but they both work i have both of them sitting in my floor right now we all no tial is proven and they pretty much have a choke hold on the market because most kits come with them mine did even tho i already had a synapse bov since december they both have worked great for me and alot of big name tuners love the synapse bov and wastgates such as evans-tuning i am not sure how tony and the other tuners have came along in there findings but tial synapse they both work great pick one

I use a Synapse Wastegate with EBC of my own tuning solution (ProECU). Works very well.
I think it will work with all the tuning programs like eCtune, Neptune and S300 which offers boost control trough a PWM controlled valve.
