I dont neccessarily agree that 230whp is a lot of power, but being RWD in a light car it can get you in trouble quick.

haha!!!! when I first turbo-charged my 240 years ago my goal was 250 hp at the crank..... then it was 250rwhp..... 300rwhp.... 325..... 360..... 410.... 450.... 475....500....550. I ended up at 553 (29psi) because I was afraid to turn it up. Well now it's set up for 35+psi so 600-625 RWHP shouldn't be a problem
HP is a drug so be very careful when you say 230whp is enough or you may get caught in the same trap I did.

HKS is played out, sounds like a bird getting stabbed
Raptor-I like it, obviously many Z owners have it, but sounded excellent IMO, I like the woosh sounds more than the high pitch
Blitz-sounds nice, havent seen one in a while
4) I have a TXS RFL (really fawking loud) and its nasty loud and wooshes like a ****, I love it, will make people you drive by jump out o ftheir seats and look at you like "WTF was that!?!"
Tial is a good BOV, but sounds weaksauce IMO. I know function > form (sound in this case) who wants a Turbo kit and doesnt wanna hear that BOV though? If you answer "not me" congrats your weaksauce
last night buddy told me the secret to making the HKS sounds way better. Im sure most of u know that HKS sells lnlet kits for the SSqv, well he says that if you run no insert it sounds like a whole diff bov. So now im kinda leaning to that, be great if i can find someone who has it currently.
