well on 5-6 psi it's not gonna be that loud. 1'st gen DSM bov's are good and cheap, not to to loud. HKS super ss, greddy type S, blitz.... the list goes on

Thank you for the quick response

I could see the DSM working...
But arent the 'Aftermarket' ones set at a MINIMUM pressure to release?

Not that bov doesn't open under 5psi........just get a Greddy type s and take out the smaller spring. Mine opens at 0 :P.

The HKS is also easly adjustable, it works fine on low boost.
