they all sound good imo
and the louder the better i have a turboxs type H RFL on my WRX and its really ****ing loud, as the name implies i also love the sound of the HKS ssqv. heard one on a mk3 supra and it was great, if i ever get tired of my RFL, then i will go with the HKS(doubt that will happen tho, lol) i have also heard the greddy type s(on a sr20det) and it sounds good and can get loud. so my favorites are TXS RFL, HKS SSQV and Greddy Type S on my celica ST-T i had some generic ebay $50 BOV and it sounded good too, it was really loud! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33742 -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

I have an SSQV, the best out there. I like it because it cant leak, and has a nice sound. Its plenty loud.

I had the blitz one on my '95 Eclipse GS-T. It's not a sqeauking sound like you hear most of the time but more a loud and powerful SHOOSH! haha

my friend had the greddy on his integra when he turboed his LS, it didnt make anysounds at max boost he was pushing like 8psi and you didnt here anything shoosh or psst or any noises. not sure why but i liked it, it kept a sleeper sound to his car because you only heard exhaust when he reved.
yes before im flamed he did put it on correctly and everything was working perfectly fine. --------------------  hows it taste motha f*cka |

David (toyceli8) had the blitz on his 3s and I could barely hear it. Its designed for higher boost aplications, so all u could here was a little woosh. I currently have the OLD Hks SQV (not SSQV) and its pretty loud, and im not even boosting. I have an SSQV sitting in my house waiting for cash to afford a FMIC, I must say when I pulled the SSQV out of the box it looks AMAZING, it looks like crap in pictures. But the SSQV is gona be more of a little hiogher pitched sound, more of the classic BOV sound u would hear in a movie. It also is like 2 BOV's in one, it has one valve for lower boost, and a larger valve for High boost, while most other BOV's are designed only for one side of the spectrum.
But because SSQV's are so popular expect to wait for awhile. Took like 2 months to get mine. |
