Agreed it sounds like my Turbonetics Raptor but since its a Blitz Skyline its probably this one:

my greddys don't make an artificial whistle sound if that's what you are asking, but they do sound good.......it sounds better than just a release of air.

Well, I didn't want to state the obvious.

I think I heard a Blitz before, but it didn't sound like that at all.

Yea, that would have been my guess too, but I have heard the blitz bov in person and it just sounds like air release.

Some of the vids on you tube, it sounds just like a release of air...kinda like a "kkhhaaaaaa" noise...but I stumbled upon a video inside of sharif's car on the track, and I believe he has 2 RS's...and it sounds kinda like 2 laser guns..hehe
like..."bbeeooo beeoooo"

Listen to this clip when sharif lets off the throttle before a corner...

Also found this one on the dyno, kinda sounds similar to the one above...probaby jsut one greddy RS...

This is one at 10 psi.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pm741K8AQbs

mine sounds like the second one too, but I get a longer blow off sound effect because I am only running single springs in each BOV. this allows my BOVs to stay open under all vacuum conditions. I use the set screw to adjust how much I want the valves to open.....if I don't, the valves open too far and they get stuck open and won't seal shut.

here's a quick video I took with my cell phone. Sorry for the crappy quality and sound. The video is some part throttle acceleration in 1st gear and then in 2nd. I would say that this is about 6psi. I am running Dual Greddy RS BOVs modded.

Greddy Type-S was one of the best sounding blow off valves imo. Doesn't sound like a bird chirping, like the SSQV, more like an electronic whistle. Sounds really good in person.

A bit off topic, but the 1st thing I thought of when I seen this thread was:

I still prefer its high pitch whistle to the SSQV, though.
