Default How loud is the Greddy Type S BOV???

I have one on the way with a kit, and was wondering how loud it was...(in comparison to others) is it among the loudest, most quiet, or somewhere in the middle ?

High pitched, very "chirppy" as opposed to those that sounds like a nice whoosh or air. It's definatley fASt aNd fUrioUS yO!

BTW, I've had 2 and I hate them both..

ok thanks for the reply, it'll probably annoy the heck out of me, so i'll plan on changing it soon after I get it on most likely. However this is my first turbo project so now i'm anxious to get in it and see what it feels like, so i'll worry about perfection as i go along after she's running.

I heard that Tial is quieter than most. I am going with the RFL soon.

It's loud as ****. Err, at least mine is. I'd like to give the HKS SSQV w/purple insert a try, or the Blitz DD BOV as well.

You could plumb it back into the intake to quiet it up but with the tial you cant because of its design

its alright. not too loud really under 15 psi.
the blitz is much louder for sure!
it is kinda chirpy/laser beamish as apposed to the hks's pure bird chirp.

i have a love/hate relationship with my type S. i like it a lot yet I frikken hate it and want something different.


if you have it loostened up quite a bit it has a good whoosh sound to it but that doesnt = the best performance lol boost leak.
