Just a Greddy RS knock off... I have one too, other than the adjustment threads stripping out, I haven't had any problems with mine.

I'm sure it'll hold up. It will probably leak like a MOFU though. eGay BOVs suck.

haha ok. im sure you will like it. i had a similar one from ebay it was the rs knock off just like yours. i also have a real greddy type s. i was holding them side by side, and they looked the same. all the internals and everything look identical. im sure it will be fine. if it leaks the take it out and spin the seat on a laith (dont know how to spell it, the thing you cut cylinder shape objects on lol)

I had one for a few years. The diaphragm eventually tore, and leaked/didn't work anymore. Took it apart, and used an old bicycle inner tube to make another diaphragm. Worked great until I took it off and put a SSQV knock off on it. lol
