What is the difference between the Godzilla and Raptor? Which is louder?

Which BOF is loudest for 8 psi of boost and has the fluttering sound? I don't like the high pitched squeel...

is the RFL kind of like a whip sound ? "CHSSSSSHHH!" no whistle right, I hate that high pitched whistle crap.

Will the RFL fit the 350Z with a TN kit?

I hear a loud whip like BOV at the end of the 1 second mark just into the video, is that you? That sounds sick if it is, my Raptor BOV is more of a flutter, that sounds like a whip lol...

BTW-that video of the older Z-that sounds VERY similar to what the Raptor sounds like, Ill try to get some video and post it up
