yes which bov is it?
I'm not too sure on Turbonetics anymore, there are sooo many people getting it and it doesnt seem like the customer service is very good.

Awesome, I would just keep that BOV on man. I would rather hear the Type S' unique sound then the Raptor.

Looks good! Sound clip?

Its just a normal woosh sound, queit when your not on it, louder when your on high boost.

Its noticeable from like 1 car away. Very quiet when recirculated. Although I didnt hear anybody go WOT, so I could be wrong on how loud it really is.

If I were you I would just stick with the Greddy.
This BOV has been used for many years now and has a great reputation. The sound is also a lot nicer with the high pitched sound instead of the woosh from like a school bus or 18 wheeler.

IDK, he seems to like the "sleeper" aspect of his ride.

ah thats tru.
If you really want to go sleeper then yeah, go with the raptor. That is, if you ever get it back from Turbonetics anytime soon. But yeah please do a video clip of the tC with the Greddy BOV, I really want to know how that sounds.

OK sorry I missed this thread but in reagrds to the Raptor BOV which port did you have the boost signal going to? Was it the upper most port closest to the logo? There are two ports. It should be in the upper one.
