SO...... I had an Apexi bov when I started my swap a couple years back. But the company that screwed me over and didnt finish my swap stole my apexi bov and stole my black apexi N1 muffler. Both brand new booooooooo...... ANYWAY.... What bov should I get as soon as my swap gets running. Let me know your opinion, what bov you use, what it sounds like, how you like it, WHY you like it, why you think I should get it. And so on.... cuz I cant chose my bov, I dont know what any of them sound like on the 3sgte.... Thanks guys.

When i think of a rice car i think of a car who put a cheap muffler on and maybe spinning hub caps but when I hear the Hks bov I feel a sense of greatness...maybe its just me.

Ok so for the longest time I have wanted a greddy type-s but given the fact that greddy cant make type-s anymore, I decided to look elseware. I for years have hated the HKS... BUT... it is because all I ever saw them on was sh*tty little civics. When you hear one on a decent car they are kinda nice. I'm sure someone has one on their celica... can someone please hit me with links to videos of celicas with the different bovs out there. Thanks

Thats the general thinking around these parts. Ive had mine recirculated for a while. The crazy loud bov gets annoying after a while and draws a lot of unwanted attention when you are getting on it.

Well..... given the fact that HKS won with overwhelming success.... I will be placing an order for an HKS SSQV the new one whenever the swap gets finished. Thanks for all your input.

Stock downpipe, 2in exhaust, and low boost, really hinders performance. wink.gif Ah those were the old days!

Yes please post as many bov vids as you can. Just post the vid and what bov you used. It will help me greatly to hear what they all sound like powered by a 3sgte engine.

Thanks,
