I have the HKS SSQV and think it sounds very aggressive, I like it! Although when I go to high boost on my D16 after it is built I will ungrade to the HKS racing BOV.

A stock one open to atmosphere. I get annoyed riding in buddies cars that go "CCCCHIIII CHHIIIII CHHIIIII" every damn time you let your foot off the gas, I don't see how people can stay sane driving that everyday. I love just hearing the soft air swush, plus you save money!

I was insane before I had the HKS on my car, so that was never an issue for me.

its a preference to myself but i value other peoples opinions. i dont have the luxury of hearing all the blow off valves on the market, as u seem to, that is why i want other opinions. calm down its just a poll that will not only help me but others too.

ps: thanks to every one who had or has a positive/ non ignorant comment and thanks for voteing

If you really did a search like i did, and not just for polls, you would have found this link:

http://www.alltrac.net/tuning/alltracblowoff.htm

Then you could listen for yourself and formulate your own opinion instead of relying on biased opinions of others to make your decision for you.

Although I don't have it, I like the Blitz. It's good quality and it's not an obnoxious squeaking sound. Just air being released, plain and simple like it should be.
