I was wondering what you guys are using and your reviews! I did use searched already. I didn't get what I wanted. I'm in the market of buying one, and most people I talk to says to just buy any because they all work the same?! Reliability? etc... Thanks in advance!

They do not all work the same. Your planned usage can help determine which you need. A crushed 1G BOV can hold 22 psi so thats the most economical choice if you don't crank the boost up with race gas. My personal favorite aftermarket BOV is the HKS SSQV or whatever its called.

I started with the crushed 1g then my buddy gave me his HKS ssqbov and I liked em both. The only difference was the sound really. Then again I'm shootin about 15 psi soon to be 20.

You used it in your old setup? I was thinking the HKS also. I was told not to get Blitz brand haha just cause!

I have a Greddy Type S BOV and I have had no problems and It looks nice and it sounds good too.

I have a Blitz DD :D. It's worked well for me so far, but I only have it on from time to time when I'm bored.

The only 2 bov's I'd ever run is an HKS SSQV or the tial 50mm. I have yet to hear a bad review on either of these two. type s's are ok, and work just fine, but I have heard seal issues with them from time to time-small tears. I personally run the tial, because it holds boost, at any psi. Works like a charm each time, every time. Plus, it sounds cool as hell, but not obnoxiously loud either.

I had a Greddy Type RS (40mm valve) vented. It worked very well, and looked nice (first thing people complimented if they saw my engine... ricers!) It sounded like a vented 1G BOV, not very high pitched like an HKS SSQV/Greddy Type S
