    I like the sound of that. Resembles somewhat to the Apexi BOV that I have, but the Greddy has a good clean whistle sound on top of that. What I like about the Apexi BOV sound is the way it sounds like an aggresive whip being... 'whipped' ? (sorry, not sure how to translate), as if you command other drivers to just move out of your way so you can overtake everyone with great vengeance and furious anger!

    It's a weird BOV. It sounds massively different depending on the car and the setting. I first heard it on High octane overboost (800HP GTR) HOLY SH!T what a sound - BELOW 1min20
    (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmgnW...m=PL&index=16).

    I fell in love with it then. Then I did some looking around for it and found some interesting things like they're not made anymore, only really found on Ebay more a fair amount of cash, they sound crappy 70% of the time e.g. the eclipse iat the start of The Fast And The Furious. Not so keen on them now.
    I'm not arguing...I'm just offering an endless series of contrary points of view.

    Same one that I have got. You have to plumb it back thou otherwise it stalls. Sounds like the cars off need for speed carbon
    I only speed when i overtake, so i don't spend to much time on the wrong side of the road!!!!!
