You need a reciculating one unless you like shooting flames in between shifts and stalling out. After that, it makes no difference and comes down to personal preference.

It's a BOV, it's not like it'll gain you 5whp just by changing it when you're only running 12 PSI max.

A recirculating BOV can be plenty loud from the inside.
