There is nothing like the sound of a B18C5 on boost. It is completely intoxicating. As a matter of fact, I do not even need a radio. I always catch myself turning it off. The music of the motor is much more satisfying. For all you N/A freaks out there, I'll be looking for you in my mirror.

My kit came with the Greddy type-s valve, it is extremely loud, and the sound is sweet. It is also a very high quality piece, I have had it for 2 years, no problems.

Eric B.
I know how you feel, 2years ago when I was first installing my turbo kit, right in the middle of it I went on my honeymoon. The sad thing is, there I am sitting on the beach in Jamaica with my wife, drinking a cold Red Stripe (Jamaican beer) and all I could think about was getting home, and getting my R on the road with boost.

just a bit to high pitched of a sound for me. I like the Type-S and HKS Race BOV's the best of all the ones I have heard and I have heard most of the popular ones. the blitz is OK and the RFL and SSQ are about the same but the RFL is even louder

If you are referring to money, it depends on a lot of factors.
Be more specific. Do you already own the turbo kit?
