Greddy RS vs. HKS SSQV sound

I currently have a ssqv bov which is a piece of **** but i like the sound. I just ordered a greddy rs bov and I was wondering if it is just as loud as the ssqv? Also was this a good idea to get this new bov because I know the ssqv is highly frowned upon for evos?

I just replaced my GReddy RS bov with a Forge diverter about half an hour ago. I didnt like the RS bov, and it didnt work to well with my car. It was tightened up pretty good & I did have alot of flutter. It was also recirculated.

Yeah it fluttered real loud. Flutter is flutter. Sounded like a turkey gobble...or sneezing.

I would go with either a Forge Diverter or a Stock IX recirculated diverter.. or JDM MR diverter. No idle issues or idle drop either. The GReddy RS stalled my car the other day too... I took off in 1st & only 1st... put in the clutch and bam, stalled engine.

Ditch the ssqv and go rs or back to stock.
