Anything that vents back into the intake should be quieter.

And the Revolution...
The RFL is almost too loud. It gets annoying after a while. I've also heard of people having a lot of problems with it because its crudely made. My friend had one on his WRX and he got rid of it. I just got a Blitz Dual Drive and it sounds great. Really Low for low boost and just right for high boost. I'm still running stock boost so I can imagine it being a lot louder with 12 pounds thru it. Its not chirpy like a bird. Its a whoosh or a hiss, Like the snake coming to eat the bird.

The question should be, what BOV will do the task of dumping my exess*sp* air the best.
Not, what BOV makes the loudest sound possible.
Remember, 90% buys a BOV because they want the *cool* sound, 10% buys it cause they think they need it.

. It is my understanding that the stock BOV isn't much good above stock pressures. I plan on running 10-12psi, and I personally don't care for going PSSHHH! at every shift. I just want something silent.Hell, I'd even pay for a device that quiets the turbo itself, so that the car sounds N/A when it isn't. I don't care to grab attention.

YO!
#1. Some of us dont feel like replumbing the valve back into the system, its a pain in the ***, and since I am Haltech, there is NO advantage to doing it.
#2. I got the Greddy Type S because it can effectively dump the over 17 PSI of boost I run.
All the N/A people, dont start drinking the HaterAide because your car doesnt go SWOOSH..

i think the apexi twin chamber can b set to the sound of a pepsi can being opend .... for me that would be quite enough, i would still like to have a bov, just not a FnF kinda ****

I like the sound of a nice bov but I'm not going out of my way to get one (ex. spending 150+ dollars) just for that. I have an old school greddy that is plumbed back into the system so it's really quite. I may just see how loud it is when I unplumb it though just to see. Anyways to add my 2 cents I used to have a greddy type s and that thing was pretty loud.
