The TurboXS "RFL" is very loud, hadi t on my Rex a while back. 
I agree. I've had the TurboXS Type-H/RFL on two different turbo cars.. If you run boost levels of 10-12psi, it is loud, but not real loud. On the one car with 24psi, it was so friggin loud, it'd scare people walking down the street! They would nearly jump off the sidewalk when I shiftedBlack Sheep Performance said:The TurboXS "RFL" is very loud, hadi t on my Rex a while back.
XS rfl is probably the loudest out there, greddy type s does have a nice soudn to it though, definately noticable from outside the ar.
far from ricer pal, i could understand you saying that if i was asking which intake would make my crossover louder, i'm sure thats a question that ppl would like to know, nothing quite as sweet as a bov sound as you pass by someone talking s**t, so keep you gay ass comments to yourself f**klkailburn said:

on a side note women love bov's
you're trying to find the loudest bov and I'm sittin here trying to find the quietest one What is the difference between wanting a louder intake and a louder BOV? They both regard a noise factor, and you are concerned about the noise output that is created by it. Instead of asking which BOV is the loudest, why don't you try asking which BOV is the best? If you are all concerned about noise, then what are you classified as when pertaining to a question like this?j_fukin_t said:
If you want the loudest BOV, go with a Turbo XS RFL because it is one of the loudest. But it's also the crappiest piece of s**t in the BOV industry. Show me one person who has put down impressive numbers with REAL boost, using the only BOV line up that features washers and a bedspring to adjust valve tension.
You won't find any because the people who put down good numbers in turbo'd Honda's are smart. Smart people research. Research leads to straying away from crappy parts like Turbo XS BOV's. [Soap box mode off]With that said, I will recommend one kick ass BOV that looks pimp, sounds pimp, will handle any type of boost you throw at it, and has been tried and proven with the DSM, MKIV Supra, and now finally the Honda guys::
The Tial BOV. 50mm valve (largest on market which means largest area of released air at discharge), and a 360 radius release (which means it doesn't discharge from just one side like all other BOV's), which in turn means loud. It's probably the pimpest sounding BOV by my likings by far. Sounds like an extremely loud crack of a whip at a WOT shift. The best part about it, is that it holds boost (30psi is no problem for these BOV's).
You're right. However, buying a half-assed BOV that won't hold boost and leaks compressed air is only going to hurt your performance. Buying a BOV that won't release air properly to prevent compressor surge (which is the point of a BOV/CBV) will only hurt your turbocharger in the long run.joe7987 said:
Even though the science of a BOV/CBV is simple, it's a much more in depth subject when it comes to one's that work, ones that make due, and ones that are all about the "OMGz t3h awesome p5555tt p555t s0undz0rz r0x0rz me b0x0rz!!!!!11111".
