I personally recommend the HKS ssqv. It will never leak, you dont have to worry about adjustments or worn springs, recirc adapter is cake, and i like the way it sounds. Greddy bov's arent bad either. Tials are another great option if you want something quiet.



you try youtube for soundclips?

Holy crap the greddy Type R is like $210



I found a few sound clips on you tube. The greddy RS sounds cool( kinda high pitch like a "bisheeee") It is a diaphram type and there around $170



What do you guys think of the brand Turbo XS there H-RFL blow off valve sounds loud and powerfull like a "Bishhhhh" The turbo XS is also a piston type blow off valve. the turbo XS costs around $145







Plus when mounting the blow off valve you want it close to the throttle body right???

I had the RFL on my FC. I never thought I'd say this, but it got annoying. It is REALLY loud, they weren't kidding. I also dont like to advertise "hey i've got a turbo"
I now have the HKS Ssqv. Perfect. And it sounds awesome. Pisheeee! pisheee!

HKS is iffy your asking for surge. my self i like the greddy type s hard to come by and a little pricey and make sure its not a knock off there are plenty of them out there but for myself I run a Tial Q and love it, but that's just me go on youtube and check out the different types and pick the one you like
