so i did my research with the magical search button and i found some great opinions on certain valves. so here is the predicament. i dont want to spend oodles and oodles of money on a bov but at the same time i want quality and a nice sound wouldnt hurt. i will be pushing 8 psi and so far here are the ones i am looking at:

apexi twin chamber (about $100)greddy type s (about $180)vortech BOV (about $150)tial BOV (??????)

i have heard the type s in person and it is louder than a bunch of high squealing birds. the others i havent heard and i dont know anyone that uses them. any impressions on em? what would yall go with or what have yall gone with? any point to using two BOVs? the goal is to get the best valve for the lowest price.

twin chamber is a damned nice valve IMO. If I traded my HKS valves I'd probably get Prof Sheepdog first, then Apexi Twin Chamber. I also like the ARC ones. And Bee R* makes this awesome looking one that I've never heard but I'd get based on looks alone. Pretty rare though.

cuz if ur not running much... get a 1G eclipse, or a Supra MKIII/MKIV, all are metal and will hold at least 15psi (and go for under $50).
