Default I have a DSM BOV, should I upgrade to a Greddy Type-S or HKS?

Setup:
Greddy SOHC turbo, 5.5-8psi
Drag III IC
D16Y8 motor

All I have is the BOV, flange and gasket. Would it be worth it to justify spending the extra money or will the DSM BOV work fine? Also, how does it sound compared to the HKS and Greddy Type-S?

Also, can the sound of the DSM BOV be adjusted in any way?

the dsm should be fine. a 1g dsm bov is pretty reliable for decent boost. the bov isn't made to be adjustable. the sound is a clean relief of air, nothing high pitched or noisy like some aftermarket units. i can't really justify spending money on another one
