The best sounding BOV i think is one you dont hear. I do like that duck call though.

im glad im not the only guy to LOVE the color purple lol. Im interested in this too, and Ive searched YouTube plenty, Its very difficult to find vids of BOV's that are 1. decent 2. clear audio 3. clearly labeled with BOV size and brand and 4. you must sift through all the ricer bullshit first. kinda odd but its my finding

I for one honestly don't care so much if a specific BOV is loud or not, I like the slight hint of it on a shift.

Haha, I went with some Magnafuel fittings/regulator and after looking at it we were like "the purple looks cool with the black" so off came the polished BOV's for the purple. I think it looks wicked.

I've had the turbonetics godzilla and its not loud and when I spoke to turbonetics they said its more geared towards hi horse pwr cars (1000hp and up). I also had the Blitz and love the sound but not the price. Also owned the HKS and it sounds close to the BLITZ.I've also owned the Greedy type RS and you can't here a sound from it. I went with the HKS on my 68 Camaro turbo build just to keep things in the engine compartment black as it comes in black, stupid reason but my personal choice. Other wise I would of bought a blitz again.

the hks ssq is probably the one most noticeable bov aside from the normal whoosh, it sounds like its whoosh got caught inside a tornado and is being spun around.
