So i have a turbo xs BOV that came with car and it is freakin loud. Now this might be fun when I was 17 but a bit older and i am really not looking to announce to the world I have a turbo.

So what are my options?

I am looking for something quite...NOT SILENT, but quite, no whistles but a soft sneeze and not give up on performance.

Does anyone have any personal experiences to share or advice?

hybrid

 

Hks ssqv (def not as loud as blitz rfl)

 

Any recirc system is much more silent. The stock FD bov is my reccomendation. Just plum the output of the bov into your turbo intake pipe.

 

turbosmart "plum back", i have it on my wrx and its a bit louder than stock. plus its a reliable name brand!!

 

Apex'i twin chamber.

 

Old school HKS Bov. I'll never switch. It's such a smooth sound and it suites the car perfectly

 

also used to have a turboxs bov, also did not like the sound. not only was it loud, it sounded terrible too

using a HKS bov now, very happy with it.

 

any pics of the HKS BOV or any other quiet BOVs

 

Stock FD just perfect! I don't like my car sounding like a door opening on the original Starship Enterprise!

 

Greddy RS is very quiet

 

I was just goin to say that, my big type R is pretty quiet.

 

I agree.
Actually I bought a Greddy RS off Jim about 2-3 years ago.It served faithfully.
If you do not ant quiet Go and buy a Turbonetics GODZILLA!
You can hear that thing for a block!

 

I've got an old school Greddy type S and it's very quiet as well. The HKS SSQV is definitely a lot louder.

 

The Syncronic BOV is supposedly pretty quiet and basic as well.
