my hks does not make a high pitch whistle sound. Just a plain ol WHOOSh of air and maybe a tiny chirp at the end.

I like the hks because the way it works it will blow off daily driving on low boost and light throttle. yet it will still hold 30psi of boost and not leak. you kind of get the best of both worlds. most other blow off valves that hold high boost have a really stiff spring to hold 20+psi and they dont blow off on light throttle. the hks is a push pull type so it will hold 500+ hp but will also blow off on light throttle so you dont get any compressor surge.

I like to type-s me personally. I like the higher pitch sound, but i didn't know the type-s could cause compressor surge.
