Default Which bov makes a chirp noise??

Hi Guys,

before you ask.... i used the search tool first but i could not find any that could answer my question.

I currently have a atmospheric bov on my 99 wrx. I do not like the woooosh sound and would prefer something that sounds more whistly like the rally cars.

Is there a bov that has a more rally sound rather than my wooshy noise.

I have an AVO tmic fitted but not sure what kind the bov is. Possibly GFB.

I recall test driving a rex i while back that had a short chirp sound but i did not have a good look under the hood to find out.

cheers

Wes

HKS SSQV or....

GFB atmo BOV with a whistle trumpet.

Both are equally ghey. Flutter FTW

Flutter depends on your intake setup, we have a Hyperflow in-guard intake, FMIC and SSQV with the whistle removed which sound different and gets hektiks flutters

SSQV with no whistle ftw
