Re: best sounding blow off?
The greddy type-s sounds like a fag fart with almost no sound. The RS on the other has nice and loud and looks better to boot.

Lol, you mean you actually take your foot off the gas when racing? I'll never go below 3/4 throttle. When I take people for rides who don't know anything sometimes asks why my BOV doesn't work and I have to explain to them that when racing it doesn't have a chance to open.

Re: best sounding blow off?
I've heard sound clips of the 1g dsm, but mine sounds nothing like them.. Like someone said above, it should sound like a sneeze. However, mine is a more high pitched sound, kind of like the SSQV. Anyone know why it does this?
And on topic: a buddy of mine has the type-s on his civic and I love it. I also like the SSQV which another friend has on his RX7. They're both really nice BOV's. I would opt for the Greddy though. |
Re: best sounding blow off?
i've just heard alot of bad things about the greddy type-s. well the leak issuse. and that the ssqv will not leak. so if thats the truth. then the ssqv is mine!

Re: best sounding blow off?
it really depends on how much boost you're running with them. Like Projekteg said, his leaked at higher boost levels. My friend is at 12psi and it's held up perfect.
And for the guy who said it sounded like a fat guy fart, the type s is adjustable. If you tighten it up a bit, it gets better sounding and higher pitched. |
