One isn't better than the other. They have different sound characteristics, so you need to decide what type of sound you want to hear from the BOV.

youtube is a great source in addition, the same BOV ends up producing different sound note in accordance to the psi you will be pushing.
i have personally ran both and ended up hard mounting the Blitz unit for my stock boost pattern.
Best of luck

Synapse Engineering Syncronic

Blow Off Valve
Wastegate
Fuel Pressure Regulator

Hands down, the best design I have ever seen.

When I was @ SSXI I spent a lot of time tinkering around in there workshop (testing between different models and brands of BOV's) and nothing came close.

I do not work for Synapse in any way or form, just really impressed with the quality of their product.
