Default In the market for a BOV, TIAL vs HKS?

Hey Guys,

I'm in the market for a new BOV... I'm either looking at a Tial or an HKS SSQV...

It will be for the Turbonetics ST... anybody have either or have some input for me? Should I just stick to the one included with the kit?

-ilon.

You planning on re-doing the flange? Also is the Raptor BOV to quiet for your liking lol.

Many of the Tial I have heard are loud, and what I hear of the HKS are they are pimp

The Tial does not seal completely and causes issues with the MAF making the car die when you come off boost. Very annoying. I had it for a few days, replaced it with a Greddy and no problems.

What do you mean?

The Raptor doesn't sputter or whistle like some of the more rediculous ones I hear around. Mine's pretty loud.

The Tial didn't even sound good. Boring and quiet. I am happy with the Greddy. I had the Type S, but now have the Type RS. It sounds pretty sweet. I also really like the HKS SSQV, but the Greddy Type RS looks better under the hood IMHO.
