LMAO I've never heard HKS described that way before! I think it sounds more like a bird chirping. But got to alltrac.net and listen for yourself

kinda agree with MiraiZ. if functionality was the only concern, we would all have DSM BOVs for 40bux on ebay

actually, if i had pieced together my own kit, thats probably what i would be using.

Hey dsm bov's dont sound too bad and they are cheap but i think most people buy aftermarket ones because they are gonna be running 20+ psi, right? Cause thats the only reason why i'd see having one.

Ever wonder why there are so many DSM bov's on ebay? They leak at resonably high boost, and with a largish turbo and some boost you will get some surge, as the outlet is a bit small, and it cannot dump enough pressure fast enough.

Where is the cheapest place to get a steel type S weld on flange. I looked at a bunch of sites, but didnt find any real good deals.

i had the hks it sounds like a hampster sneezing, the gressy type s is loud as hell though. especially on a car that can make boost in neutral like a dsm, all you have to do is barely press the pedal and let off and you can hear it.
