its your preference, any bov will make a "piiisshhh" sound, depends on what kind of tone you want,
stock vented bov sounds pretty good, or you can get a hks SSQV which has a very high pitch "piisshh" sound, theres lots to choose from, just go youtube the different brands of bovs and hear for your self

Just unplug the OEM BOV from the air box, and the car goes PSSSSSH. Make sure to block the hole in the air box so your not sucking in unfiltered air after. There is no need for an aftermarket BOV unless you want a different sound.

It is just sound, and the stockers get noticeably louder when not in the stock air box. Free, and good is the best choice.

I agree with the above. This is a highly subjective question and I guarantee you that no one will have 100% agreement what is the best sounding. These questions are poorly thought out...

does removing the stock vented BOV from the air box in any way effect the idle?

Is anyone running HKS Super SSQV III on a stock FD? if so how do you like it? Is it really as high pitched as the older versions in the you tube video i saw?
