friend has teh rfl on his srt4, its loud, almost to the point where its too loud.... his buddy has a srt4 with a different vaccum source that requires him to stiffen the spring, and that is even louder.... ill be using a 1g dsm bov...they sound very very nice, not real loud, but just right.

i have the HKS SSQV and well, lets face it... The sound of a blow off valve often does contribute to the purchase of any particular BOV no matter what anyone says.
that's very true....i never did get tired of the fact that everytime i shifted it made someone turn their head :D i dont think you can ever get tired of a BOV...too bad you can't make them alternate between sounds.

This is the most HONEST thing I have heard anyone say yet. Everyone has thier own opinion and tatstes, so I dont think its fair to thoes who like loud BOVs to be called f**kin ricers by thoes who perfer quiet BOVs.

if you want the loud whistle, then you should probably look into the GReddy Type S or the HKS Super Sequential
exactly what i was thinkin. i like the HKS SS better than the greddy type s though. i think it sounds better.

we all know, half the reason to choose your BOV is for the SOUND, if you say it isnt, youre full of s**t....
and if you say you get sick of the sound, you should be driving a rental car---s**t, sick of the sound---
my HKS SSQ BOV is the only thing that wakes me up in the morning-
as far as the sound- loud whistle, followed by a rattlesnake sound, follwed by the whirring of
a spooling ceramic ball bearing turbo is the very epitome of an auto enthusiasts wet dream....
who are you kidding, sound doesnt matter, get the one that works best- theyre all pretty much the
same....i've never heard anyone say, wow, the blow off valve really works well!!!
DO YOU?.... NO....its more like, WOW, that blow off valve sounds sick!!!
point proven. ;)

im more into the turbo spooling than i am into the sound a BOV makes. the high pitch winding owns me. but ill be using a 1st gen dsm bov for my setup
