Has anyone heard of this? I'm looking for that bov sound but don't want all the hassles that are involved. Its on protegegarage.com

I'm pretty sure you understand there is a purpose of a BOV other than the sound. If you own a MS3 speed you are above this kind of stuff. If you own a MS3.....enjoy it, kick ass and don't worry about the sound. If you are not interested in putting the work into solid modifications don't bother with crap "add ons".

Just my opinion. Of course I'm jealous of all MS3 owners. Congrats to you for owning an awesome car.

Go with the Forge BPV. You get function as well as some sound with the stock intake.

i have the hks (came with the car when I bought it). I like the sound.

I have the turbosmart one...I like it. It's kinda pricey but it can run full recirc, full VTA or 50/50 hybrid. I'm running full recirc for now since thats what it is stock, then am going to go 50/50 or VTA once a tuning solution comes out that hopefully will allow for it to work right. Also, it's fully adjustable, you just twist the top part to loosen/tighten the spring, so you can fine tune it for any application or boost level in the future.

[elmer1987]

just ordered it.

Why do you want a loud one for?

[rjs_speed3]

because it sounds cool..

just like rims, some might be heavier, but it looks cool...

[Jasonstiller]

Yes, this seems to be an ongoing trend here. Who cares if you want that BOV sound. If you dont then fine. To each his own mangs! Why would you lower a car if your not tracking it, why do anything unless your racing it. Cause YOU want it faster, YOU want it to handle better, or YOU just like the looks. Who gives a sh**

Any of them in recirc isnt going to be that loud. running full VTA will have some driveability issues, at least I did. Sopme valves are 50/50 and those are better, but not ideal. I have the turbosmart one in full recirc and it's louder than the stock one, but not by a whole lot
