Which BOV sounds/performs best at low boost?
Im trying to decide which BOV sounds and performs better at low boost. My choices right now are
Greddy Type S
HKS SSQV
or Keeping my Blitz DD (which makes hardly any noise at all)

I was thinking that too but I've heard of negative comments on the internals of the type S, something like it doesnt hold up well after being used for so long. Seeing how greddy discontinued it, Im probably gona end up buying a used one.

Well the hks ssqv is the worst designed bov! Definately Greddy, or Tial, and I'm definately looking forward to the Synaptic BOV release!

best 13 bucks i ever spent at the junkyard!
i have mine mounted before the intercooler, inside the bumper. you cant see it, since its not to good looking but it sounds louder and nicer then some of the people i know with $150+ bovs.

Re: (Justa_Old_DC2)
the hks ssqv has the slowest valve in the industry, a dsm is actually one of the best. A tial bov has a sound very close to the ssqv, but actually does it's job much more efficiently.

Uh.. HKS SSQV is actually the most efficient and holds boost the best out of any of the BOVs. The release needs to be set, morons. If you set it to release at 10 psi but you are pushing only 6, it will take a second to build 10 before releasing.
For stupidity.
DSM sucks..
Type-S sounds horrible IMO.
I vote RS, SSQV, or Tial. Best sounding and performing.

Seems to conclude that your beloved SSQV is one of the worst if not the worst bov.
