Yes, stock is best. You will gain NOTHING but sound with anything else. In fact you will probably LOSE more than you will gain with an aftermarket BOV as it will cause the engine to run rich between shifts.

I have an HKS Bov right now and I love it. The sound is a nice whistle, distinct from other bov's. It isn't very loud unless you rev high. But I would agree with the other guys that it is only for the sound and won't help performance at all.
The stock bov actually sounds really sweet if you get an intake or take the silencer out of the air box. It is just loud enough to hear inside and outside the car during normal driving.
