From what I hear, the greddy holds without issue.

I had one in my car for a few hundred miles...

The diaphram burst after about 110 miles. Now I'm back to the TT valves until I can afford a Greddy.

Glad to hear yours is holding...

I'm just tired of having to change these valves every few thousand miles (if I'm lucky).

I used that valve on my 250 hp K03 running 20-24 psi and

with the 333-350 hp I was making with the PES T28 kit using 21-24psi. It lasted about a year and a half.

I had the porsche valve on my car for about 50,000 miles and it held just fine.

Are you sure you had the right valve. But I then put it in my friends car with his X-chip and it ripped in a week, but I found out that it ripped because I put it in backwards like his stock valve that I took out. This is the #1 reason the bosch valves rip, since the valve was not designed to have a high boost pressure pushing on the bottom of the spring valve and in the vac line side of the diaphram.
