Any one that does the job gets my vote. If you want mainstream, then either the HKS SS or the Greddy type-s.

I ordered a blitz no too long ago

Both are nice, I like them.. It's really depend on what you want to hear:

HKS.. HISSSSSS!!!!

Blitz... WHOOOOSH!!!!!

You pick, I like either one, it's just that the Blitz was on sale for about $50 bucks less so I got that one.

You can try here for some sounds files of BOV's.

Try any of the HKS SS

And try the Blitz one.. There are 2 blitz ones' and the 2nd one is the new blitz BOV I believe.

Are you running 7psi still? (your sig)

you can get a Bosch one for under 50 from turbonetics.

It sounds good, but is made out of thermoplastic and can only hold 10 psi.

Blah everyone left out the apexi-twin chamber. I love it actually. You can adjust the sound on it. Also it has a true blow off sound. Its like a sneeze on crack.

Agreed. This is my favorite, heard it on a dsm once @18lbs and it sounded awesome.
