RFL. i did put on the 3000gt blow off valve just for fun, the thing really leaks above 10 psi. or at least mine does. it's SO quiet. i actually think it sounds kinda cool.

TurboXS Type H

It's not the RFL, but I can't imagine wanting any louder. Also, the convenience of this BOV fitting PERFECTLY on the flange of the HRC intercooler piping flange makes this BOV ideal!

The first gen Blitz SS. I love it, but those who have it be aware the stock spring only supports up to 18psi. It leaks after that. A race spring is available which holds over 30. I think I paid around $10 for it. Works great and easy to swap.

look at my ugly dirty engine bay with a shiny bov. Well before this last rebuild anyway. It is much improved this time around.

HKS Super Sequential, an option that isnt listed

this is a shot of my TIGHT fitting piping, but you can see the BOV up top (and I love my headlight fogging)

As I was reading this, I wondered why not alot of people picked the HKS SSQ bov? My mechanic took my TurboXS RFL and put in his 1st gen and hates it (the sound, he says it sounds like Chun-Li from Streetfighter slap sound ???). He has the other one and hates it too. He likes HKS the best. I have the Greddy Type-S in my 1g, but was either going to get the HKS or another Greddy for the 420A. I heard the cars dont run that great with the RFL which is why I was gonna sell it, now I'm not so sure.. emoji

I bought it from NOPI. They are easy to find and cheap. I use it at all boost levels without a problem. Makes it sound even better and very obvious that it is stiffer when you look at it.
