Default satisfying the ricer within.....help me choose a BOV

hello all!

it's time to choose a bov. i'll be running between 10-15lbs boost.

i'm looking for a certain sound....a quick crisp rush
for instance i hate the sound of my friend's hks ssqv. it flutters and squeaks.

less $$ is better, but i haven't cheaped out on the build yet, so please recommend something reliable. thanks!

Tial bov, sounds great and just a crisp clean release sound.

I know a friend had a greddy type-r I think that is also very crisp @ 14psi but at higher boost it has a tad bit of whistle (nothing like the hks though).

hey this car is almost too low key.....i wouldn't mind announcing my intent with a loud-*** bov. it's either that or some neon pink brake calipers.

honestly i like the idea of being able to use washers to account for the engine's vacuum (turboxs) as opposed to different springs (tial). and the turboxs is cheaper. is there a significant disadvantage with it? is anyone adamant enough to talk me out of it?

Im really biased towards the Greddy Type-S. I love the sound ..and its a good BOV for street applications.
