too much of a whistle? I had the Full race hks bov, and the ssqv bov, both had deep tone, like a semi truck for the ssqv and more waffling tone on the full race.....

I just replaced my Type-S with the WORKS (JDM style) diverter. The Type-s was making a turkey-like fluttering sound. The most sound I get now is a small rubbery pop. I've heard other bov's and think JDM metal is the way to go, only noticeable to those in the know.

The SSQV has two possible inserts that alter the sound. The peace-symbol looking one makes you sound like you have a bird from the future shooting lasers in outer space. The round insert sounds more mellow, like Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff going "psshhhh" after their handshake.

BigBadEvo- who are those people in your sig? :)

Yeah I have the Greddy Type-RS on my car, and no it doesn't make a "WHOOSH" sound....since it's recirculating, it makes a sweet rattle noise...and it can be loud if you release the gas pedal at the right RPM. But yeah, GO RECIRCULATING BOVs ALL THE WAY!!!! it's healthy for your EVO! I'll never go HKS SSQV, that's just for sound and show.

I like thHKS more then Rs cause the greddy when vta makes a loud whoosh noise like the GFB bov. The HKS is more of a chirp but sounds agressive. I had the greddy type-s vta I like that one but I went HKS ver.2

Is the MR bov in the US MR supposed to be forged or plastic like the standard VIIIs? Or, is it just the JDM MR that has the forged valve?

I have two friends with evos and they both have the HKS bov and I think Its too much of a whistle? How does the Greddy rs sound? :?



the question is what are you looking to do with your evo? because venting to atmosphere is very very wrong. you can congratulate your friends for being the slowest evos out there. i bet there also un-tuned also? sounds might be pretty cool but there not for the type pf cars we have. especially venting to atmosphere you run really rich, waste more gas (from hearing the sound, and because you VTA) stick to the stock bov. best upgrade would be the JDM evo9 bov. goodluck i hope you make that right decision.
