I want the BOV to be obnoxiously loud, and I'd also prefer a whistle noise over a whoosh.
I've been thinking of either the HKS SSQV or the Turbo Smart dual port.
I had a Greddy Type-s, and it wasn't loud enough.

I have a HKS RS intake, and I just got a UTEC, so should I recirc the BOV, or can I get it tuned to VTA via the UTEC?

Also, would the HKS EIDS be needed with the UTEC?

 

Hmmm...

Why oh why are people so willing to blow their loads over a bov? It pains me to read stuff like this. I guess to each is their own...

 

I'm just a big fan of the BOV noise, that's all. It's like music to my ears.

WHen you really like a song, you turn it up really loud, don't you?

 

Like I said, to each is their own, at least you have a good comeback, . Im sure by tomarrow there will be tons of recommendations. Good luck with your quest.

 

I like the sound of a VTA BOV as well, not that I'm fanatic about it or anything but it's cool and people looks at your car as if something is wrong with it I had a Blitz super sound on my VI and it was LOUD but only a whoosh type of sound. I have the HKS SSQV on my VII now and it has the coolest sound I’ve heard so far, except maybe for the WRC cars but that sound is impossible to get unless you build your engine to WRC spec The HKS SSQV has changeable fins in the front and you can adjust the sound with them, the gold fin is said to be the loudest of them but in reality I cannot hear a difference from the silver fin that comes in the package, then you have the purple fin which is more like a short tube and it takes away the whistle in the sound and makes a longer whoosing sound.

It must be VTA if you want a loud sound, you might get stalling issues with that setup but hey, what do you do

 

if you want loud go with turbo xs RFL. Just remember that you will compensate sound for driveability.

 

No you don't

 

I just stick my head out the window and make a "psssshhhhuuuu" sound.
Stock DV is great, never had a problem.

 

I have the turbosmart dual port and it sounds great and is plenty loud. Put it this way, I have seen people jump in there seats when I shift going by them. It has a very aggressive sound as in "don't ---- with my car lol".

Yo, I love that sound too. That and a whistle tip for the exhaust, some vinyl graphics, neon lights. Thats dope yo.

 

i have the turboxs rfl vta. its loud and obnoxious. it was cool the first 2 days. then got annoying. i am back to stock. i had it welded to the i/c piping. i'll sell you the pipe and the bov for 170 shipped.

 

i hear tsumani (ms) makes a great bov kit

 

must have been a ex-honda owner. They go nuts over the blow off valve sound for some reason.

 

Have you had any driveability issues and are you holding steady boost? It's a direct bolt in, correct?

I'm having one installed at Agile this weekend.

 

We had a customer come in with one and it almost stalled bring it in to the shop "Bonus" Just go with a greddy type s with the spring mod and your gravy
