    How loud really is the HKS ssqv bov? I've listened to sound clips on you tube of that one and others and they all basically sound just a loud. The synapse synergy sounds really good. Anyone have it on their car?

    Mine always had a weird flutter sound which I disliked.

    Don't worry, my whole car used to leak until I took it to Allpro.

    Loud is subjective, but since you asked...I didn't think it was that loud.

    Its pretty loud IMHO. I had one on my car for a while but took it off and put the stock BPV back on. It was cool when I first bought the car, but got rather annoying after that. I have a video on the dyno at TopSpeed and you can hear the BOV very well over my Blitz exhaust at WOT.

    Oh and mine was the new SSQV 4...not sure if the sound varies on the older generation bovs
