best sounding blow off?
 

i don't like my rfl any more :(. i'm bout to get another. i'm lookin at a tial, the hks ssq, or the greddy type-s, type-rs

which is better sounding?

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

I like my Ebay Special. Nice Solid CHHSSSSSSHHH. Not to loud, but enough to get noticed when you want.

But if I had to get a new one it would be the HKS SSQ or a Greddy. I heard the Greddy knockoffs are nice.

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

yeah so did i. but i heard the type-s is better then the type-rs and the type-r is the best so i dunno lol

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

i like the type s for lower boost, but mine tends to leak with anything over 20 psi so i just traded it for an ssqv. if you don't ever plan or running 20 or more psi, i would get the type s. it has a better sound than the rs and the r is designed for higher boost also.

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

cool. my moms buyin it for me becuz my car got broken itto yesterday. haha. shes gettin it to make me feel better ;D but even on my ls motor i don't think i'm going to run more then 20 psi.

loud BOVs are for ricers

don't get one thats loud

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

my friend says my DSM BOV sounds like a lound sneeze... :-\

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

Deep down, we're all ricers

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

HKS SSQ is the bomb

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

sound wise, the only other thing i would have bought instead of my hks would have been the type s. my bro had one on his talon and it sounded ------- sweet. but i got the hks instead just because i knew it would never leak

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

ha i think the stock sti sounded like a sneese on my car. yeah my friend has the ssq on his crx i like how it sounds. but my other friend has the type-s on his eclipse and i think thats ------ sweet lol

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

do u have the real rfl?damn i love those,i guess u want more of the whisle wound instead of the skool bus,get the greddy type s.

Yes we are all ricers in a way

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

haha thanks

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

the type rs with its spring tight sounds very similar to a tial, i think at least

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

yes get the type-s because thats whats on my civic d16 with a t25 turbo people love it when it hits

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

i had the whistly ass greddy type S...i thought it sounded kinda weird all the way up to 11psi.

then this weekend I heard it on a high boost sr20 setup...holy ---- that thing was mean.

whatever one was on the 805whp supra sounded nice too.

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

ahhh i remember when i one asked that question on this forum. i still dont ------- know which one sounds like what.. i have an rfl on my car. its pretty ------- loud, but if you want yo ---- to sound all fast and furious pm projekteg he knows alot about blow off's and body kits ahhhhh . ;D i swear if i had a ricer shop id buy one of every kind and put them all on a display board im my showroom and and and make em all blow for my customers. na but really i like the way that green eclipse sounds on f&F i wish my ---- sounded good luck on your journey bro..

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

i got the greddy knock off off of ebay...we tested it on my cousin;s car.... it sonuded like a whistle....but he said it should be a lil louder on a small turbo car (like T3) ....but i hav a video clip of the comparison of the greddy, mopar, hks, and RFL BOVs .... and the greddy one soundded hella tight ....anyone know where i can host it at??...i'll post it up wen i get home...im at school right now

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

i got the hks that came on the S14. with the round flange. its not too loud but i like it.

i just got me the apexi Dual Chamber from ebay but i dont know what sound it makes.
someone have a clip?

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

compressor surge sounds fine

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

my Tial 50mm is sexy.... :-*

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

my turbo xs rfl on 18 psi sounded the best out of anything ive personally heard......

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

greddy type-s hands down. do i need to dig up the sound clip again?

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

your mom is the best sounding blow off valve :P

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

Any way to really track down if a BOV is letting boost by? I'd suspect the only way is on the dyno... but is there another?

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

Just roll down your window and yell "I have a turbo" every time you shift ::) if you're serious about performance, get a recirculating bypass valve rather than a tmospheric blow off valve which does absolutely NOTHING geared towards performance.

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

Nothing sounds sexier then when a 6L turbo dump truck blow off.

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

I like the 1st gen DSM's since I have one, sounds just right, I want a Greddy Type S, Alot of people I know have it, it sounds a lil bit better than mine

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

want to sell the rfl since you are getting a new one have cash

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

Actually, all BOV's do nothing for performance. Recirculating it isn't going to magically make the car faster.

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

haha thats some funny ----

owned

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

I just want to add another vote for the greddy type s (and the knockoff assuming its really identical). I don't care about sound.... it 'sounds' fine i guess... i do like the boost assist though. Just hooked it up yesterday and my really low psi compressor surge is gone now... it'll blowoff at low psi now instead of not... because its adjusted for higher boost.

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

Your tial sounds like a wet lesibian ripping one.. However my old Tial valve sounded pretty decent

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

just go get a aircompresser put it in your car and ever time you shift just pull the plug now thats the best sounds quality

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

I would go with the hks for sound after hearing your car, but I also really like my 1g dsm bov.

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

with the low frequency insert...mmm

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

haha i was waiting for that....


---- a BOV....dont run ----...flutter is hot...

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

actually all blow off valves DO do something for performance. you ever watched a boost gauge on a car with no bov between shifts? ;)

Re: best sounding blow off?
 

Yeah, the only difference is I don't shift like a ----- therefore the engine never pulls enough vaccum to even open the BOV. Therefore a BOV that never opens while racing does absolutely nothing for performance except adds the possibility of leaking therefore hurting performance. Whitey has now just proven that BOV's actually makes your car slower;)
