the hks one makes more of a fluttering sound, but on cars running a ton of boost they often get the fluttering sound anyway because so much air is coming out of the bov when the throttle closes

My friend has a Vortech (I think) and it flutters and sounds like a rattlesnake

I used to use a blitz ss and during quick shifts at 20psi it it gives off a double sound .
now I use the greddy type rs knockoff its just straight blow off but not as loud as the blitz.

D1 cars dont have bovs, oridos supra... no bov on my car for 2 years, until 88 there were no blowoff valves on turbo cars... blowoffs are to maintain the turbos velocity more than to protect things. plus they sound fun. without a blowoff my car sounds like a turkey gobble... ganted - it cant be "good" for the turbo - but even the best bov ever theres still some reversion. im running 22psi on a H1c with a tial now, and that things huuuuge and i still get a little surgy fun time

Turbonetics raptor, Its an adjustable bov, you can adjust it to make that low quiet flutter, almost sounds like a rattle snake. But it only dose it when you are pushing around 2-5 psi, more than that and it makes the normal pssssshhhhhh sound. Or you can adjust it to sound like that all the time. My brother in-law has one on his srt-4 It sounds nice but I know its spendy.....
