Default how does a 1g bov sound?

Was debating on whether to fork out 200 some dollars or just gettin an uncrushed dsm bov. I saw a 1g bov with 1g tube for only $30

How do these things sound? pretty low pitched swoosh? any links or movies you guys have with someone that has one?
thanks

$200 vs $30....... You've answered your own question. Who care how it sounds, take that $170 difference and spend it on a better IC or Turbo.

Kinda like one big douche sound, no chirping or whistle at all.

I had it. It was great. But since I was gonna weld in a flange for it. I decided to get the RFL. I'm not one bit dissapointed.
