Need a really load BOV?
 
WHich bov should I get. I want to run between 8 and 10 psi of boost but would like a loud bov sound. Is there a particular kind or brand that has a nice powerful sound on low boost applications. Also, it needs to be fairly inexpensive.

I've heard a hks ssq and its pretty loud but it's not cheap though. Its a nice chirpy sound.

I have the RFL, and it really loud. it sounds like trucks air brakes. the more psi the louder that thing is.

Is the rfl stupid loud, like drive you crazy loud or does it sound good. I like the turbo sound, so i want to be able to hear it well and stuff, but not rediculous. Is this the one for me.

That loud huh. Is there another one that is loud but not terribly obnoxious. I want to know it's there for sure but not be driven nuts by it.

annoyed....past tense....why did you get rid of it? So it's not too bad. Also, how much is a fair price for one. I have seen them as high as 190 or so

I hate the sound of the Turbo XS. Its a real deep sounding BOV but I think they're so popular becuase of the name.

Out of all the ones I've used: Blitz dual drive, RFL, HKS SSequential, Greddy type-S, Bosch, I like the type S the best. It by far has the nicest sound but everybody has their own opinion. I personally don't the RFL's sound of a charge pipe falling off and the wastegate flutter sound of the HKS. But thats just me.
