How will it sound? will it flutter? will it be loud? any thoughts/opinions welcome..

 

I really like the way they sound. its not a flutter, just a nice PSSHHHTT. not to loud but you can notice it

it does have a high-pitched whistle when it blows off, but no fluttering. at 6 psi should sound nice.

 

I describe it as a pressure release sound like from a soda bottle but deeper than a short whistle afterwards.

 

Mine has a quick flutter than a loud whistle @ 10psi.

 

Is the Type S louder than the HKS SS? Man I wish there was a place you could compare sounds.

 

How does the HKS ss sound?

 

how much pressure can the typr s handle?

 

Ive seen it used up to 19psi.

i have the type-s runnin' 5psi...durin' the days its kind of a "bird whistle" sound, not as loud as the hks though...but at night when its quiet out...i can hear a gush of air along with the whistle...sounds sweet!!!

 

i had the type s on my car for a couple years and eventually switched out to the hks std racing bov. all i can say about the greddy type s is.... that whistle gets damn annoying after 2 years.

 

the hks ss is definetly louder, my friend has the type s, and I had the hks ss on my stolen car. you could hear the hks over the greddy. but I liked the greddy better, his has a nice short flutter followed by a long whistle. if you watch the fast in the furious, in the beginning scene where the civic's are stealing that truck, those are type s's ( although the cars didn't have turbos)

No sound file for the Type-S? Which is it comparable to? I like the sound of the larger HKS valve.

 

I have the hks ss. How do I get the sound of the larger valve?

 

I have a good vid of some revving if someone wants to host it for me

 

sounds hella nice at 6 psi, your can adjus it to make a swooosh or adjust it to make a swoosh while it whistles...

 

my blitz sounds nothing like the sound file even with the horn. Will loosening the nut on top make it louder.

 

The Type-S?

 

Here's a sound clip on the Greddy Type S

IF you want to be heard....... Greddy Type S hands down. At only 7psi you can hear it 4 cars deep. Roll up next to someone and watch them jump when you ka-ching them.
My Blitz is really quite. I thought it was going to be louder but no! It takes about 10psi or more to get it to really sound off. If I could change BOV's right now...I would swap for a Type S.

Fawkin right! Is that how it will sound at about 7-8psi?
