Default Best BOV?

Hey guys, i need some suggestions as to which BOV to get. I have the standard GReddy type S that came with my kit. I'd like to get a much louder one that also uses the GReddy flange. I looked at the turboXS type S, but they dont offer an adapter to the GReddy flange.

If you want loud... like sounds like something is breaking... try Turbo XS RFL... i remember when one of the MR2 guys had it.... dude, its retarded.

You could always get the HKS SS like everyone else

me im after the "performance" part i guess... just a boring Tial

Something not too loud(106 dB), but noticeable, and designed for smaller amounts of boost (under 15 psi) try the TurboXS TypeS. Which is what I have.

Different and not everyone and their mother has it <cough> HKS SSQV, Greddy Type S <cough>

Limiting yourself to that flange will take away a lot of choices.

people use the SSBOV for a reason...it is a quality piece and also does not leak under idle, which is great if you have a MAF metering device
