which bov would work for me?

My plan is to buy a borla hush setup, and now I'm also considering what BOV would be best for me. I was thinking HKS but I was also told to go gfb.
Any suggestions? I have a 2005 Wrx.

worx tuning/gfb/or the blitz one with recirculation all seem decent.

for me, HKS or BLITZ. but then i think about it and i'm running stock everything, except for a cat. No NEED for a BOV. They do make different sounds though. The HKS seems to have a whistle...but you can get inserts to change the sound. BLITZ.... i've heard it on an MR2 turbo. Really deeep whhhoooooosh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

good stuff. haha.

whats the point in getting a stealth exhaust if you want to sound like a steaming kettle/locomotive everytime you let off the gas?

if my car was running i'd definately get one of those wooden train whistles and mount it on my BOV. its WOOOWOOOOO taken to the next level.

ARC blow off valve. Works great, and not too obnoxious sounding.

i'd recommend getting a girlfriend and putting her in the passenger seat... you never know what kinda sound she'll make when you quickly let off the gas

BOV, P.O.S., it's all the same really...sacrificing performance and longevity for a sound...it'll let everyone know you care more about what they think you want than what you actually want.
