i was looking at 2, the hks ssqv or the greddy-type rs bov? which one sounds better and which one is louder? thanks
I just picked myself up an HKS SSQV.
I have the three setting APEX’I BOV and it gives you a nice loud classic style discharge sound of nothing more than air. No whistle sounds for me they are great a real head turner.
no no no no no no , dont do it …this is one of the only HKS products I would not recommend …you will get sick of it in like a week just like the greddy type-s …
It makes too fake of a noise that gets really repetitive
that is what a BOV is , functionality and just the sound of rushing air “whoosh” , its doesnt need to be a cherp or a beep …
I find the Greddy RS nice. Not to loud at all.
I couldn’t disagree more… I loved my HKS SSQ, still my favorite.

Well it’s too late because I’ve allready purchased it, and unrapped it and everything. Plus I have a recirculation fitting, so the stupid whistle fin things will not be in use.
Buy one that works and don’t worry about the GHEY sound it makes(that’s what ricers do, buy it for the sound not function).
I am running the blitz ssdd seems to work pretty good.

Which bov do you have?
I have the gold insert for my HKS SSQ and I like it. Even the purple one but mine sounds a little diffrent!
The ones I dont like are turbosmart. It sounds like a slap in the face. Also the Blitz SSQ’s I dont like too much either. Just not my type I guess!
But yes I also like the greddy but I havnt herd the RS one yet! Is it much diffrent than the regular one???
At low boost it still flutters but at high boost it is great. Just a big whoosh of air and no equeek to it.
There’s different inserts for SSQVs?

I had twin blitz on a car once.
sounded great, weren’t overly noisey and if set up right they like to play you a song at the right boost.
If you want the Gold insert to make your BOV louder for your HKS I’ll sell you one (brand new) for $30.00
bov’s sounds are for NOOB’s! a tightened BLITZ SS i smy choice…just make sure its tight!
when your BOV goes off at 2500-3000 without turkeying(shoo-too-too) thats gay…
