its not a SI and its not that much of a sleeper in person because the wheels are tucked and it has the front grill cut out and other stuff

Ahhh the smooth and crisp sound of a tial BOV. Soo fresh and so clean lol... At least it sounds identical to a Tial BOV.

Low boost though huh? Not too bad

Sound identical to a Tial. Haha, maybe an Apexi twin chamber or Blitz dual drive?

For all the boosted cars I've raced in, against, or heard...

They all pretty much use:
HKS SSQ BOV
Greddy Type-S
Turbo XS RFL

HKS being VERY common because of it's push-pull design. I wish to try out the Apexi twin chamber or the Tial for next turbo project...

greddy type-s? i guess i never heard the type-s on lower boost before haha...

The tC migh be getting a Greddy BOV directly from greddy. I'm not sure which BOV they plan on giving me, but I know they tweaked it a little according to what I've been told. I'll post up pics and sound clips once that's done...

it sounds a little different in the video, its not that weird sound, u kno what im talking about? I've heard the greddy type S at 9 psi and it sounds the same, just louder, then his car. I don't know why, but it doesn't sound weird to me anymore, i think i got used to it, it just sound like a regular bov now.

That's always nice haha...

Any BOV noise is acceptable to me. The noise is a by-product from something far more heavenly lol.

you know what im talking about though right? how the hks sounds like the "typical" bov sound, and the turbo XS sounds more like the airy sound? and how the greddy type S sounds like no sound humanly describable? It sounds like a wobbling sword!

Yeah I know exactly what you mean. The Type-s os close to the Tial. The Apexi twin chamber, judging by the design, should somewhat like a mix between the HKS and the XS bov.
