I finally decided to splurge and buy an aftermarket BOV. I had decided on the Type-S but because i can't get my order to process i'm giving it more time to think. A few people said the RFL was too loud and almost obnoxious at times which i obviously don't want but at the same time the Type-S looks really nice. I haven't really heard either one IRL so i was wondering if y'all had any input.

greddy type-s sounds really really nice ide deifnetly go with that, i think the rfl would prolly get annoying and stupid after a while.

i have the turboxs, i think it sounds really nice. Its not a chirp sound, or a deep woosh sound. It almost sounds like a school bus. lol.. but out of all of them i like the sound of the turboxs. Its all on preference though.

i love the sound of the type s..... which is one reason i bought it.

i believe the hks type R is made to handle higher boost levels and therefore more solid, and more money.

i like the tial bov as well.

i havent heard the tuboxs one yet.

I had the RFL on my turbo probe and you find your self learning how to avoid the blow off LOL.



It is a good BOV can get a bit annoying if you constantle get into boost on the street but great product.

Type S is a great sound!

If you're choosing from those 2, seems simple.

my rfl is great, scares away the ricers.



i blew up an HKS SSQV by running 15-17psi, the innner rubber boot blewup. So i converted to onyl BOV's built in the turboxs style, no silly bellows thing to fracture.



the type s sometimes has a squeak to it, my friend has one on his wrx and it sounds good at moderately high boost levels.
