What bov should I use for the 3s swap Options

[politicsareevil]

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.

So I see votes but I see nw explanation on why I should get those.

[playr158]

NONE

you shouldn't get a BOV at all....you should get a diverter valve

Greddy or HKS.
Toss a coin and pick one.

i have a turbo XS RFL...but im beginning to think that having a bov is becoming ricey? i havent heard any on alot of the cars around here, they may be recirc though idk.... anybody think so?

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

pay no attention to how slow the car was in this vid.

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.

I love that sound. If my car's ricey I'm the queen of england.

[x_itchy_b_x]

love the sound of my apexi twin chamber. never had a problem with it.
but if i were to get a new BOV. which i may after hearing this one.
the SARD R2D2. so clean sounding.

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. Ah those were the old days!

Dont be a fag. Just post it up.

[politicsareevil]

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,
