I'm just wondering what a nice, modest sounding blow off valve is. I dont want an airhorn under my hood, something nice and quite with a nice sound. Any recomendations?

 

1G DSM. I have it on my car and it's quiet when you are driving normally and it gets louder when you get on it hard. It's not super loud like the other bov's and the sound is perfect.

 

Greddy type S satisfies my needs when i dont have music playing

 

my fav sounding, is the hks ssq, i.m.h.o. the best functioning, is the tial 50mm

 

yea i forgot to mention that its a tial flange. Does the HKS ssq fit on that?

 

no.

 

Bosch or $30 ebay bov

 

tial 50mm

 

The type-RS is meant to be more subtile than the type-s. The type-S has the whistle-like sound I love, along with so many others that hear my car blowoff. I also love the SSQ


FYI, very few mfg's use the same flanges for BOVs. Greddy, RFL, Tial, HKS SSQ, Blitz, etc are all different.

 

actually greddy type s and the hks race bypass valve is the same flange

 

My turbo xs rfl sounds great!

 

Does any 1 have a sound clip of the 50mm?

greddy type-rs sounds sick

 

ebay bov ftw

 

ive heard greddy type-s alot, and i love that one

blitz is a close second

 

for sound i think the greddy type s takes the prize. for higher boost apps most ppl use tials or hks from what i see. If you change the insert on the HKS... it sounds pretty good. Ill make a clip of it sometime.

They are all good in their own way. Just your own pref

good luck

 

tial, no substitutes

 

i have the greddy type s on my integra with my turbo just installed...waiting to get ecu and tune. i've heard some good comments on this bov, but good luck finding one cause i believe they dont make them no more

 

i had the RFL ebay knockoff... and it worked great.. nice and loud.... never had a problem with it... but just for sence of security, i bought a new Tial one... should have it on anyday
