Cool! Man I really like I-club...found one!

I will be reunited with my old APS bov...

Thanks to Steve, the search is over...

Yeah, I know Jimi...I really wanted to try out the Worx V1.2 adjustable bov for the same reason as you...suppose to be louder than the original but for $290...I feel the same...I can't justify the cost...

I did really want to try out the Turbosmart 50/50 as well...suppose to be of equal quality to the APS...with a different sound...louder from what I hear.

Nevin...

Which one were you looking for specifically? I'm not sure what the Turbosmart sounds like...but with the horn and all, I'm thinking it sounds like a muffled Turboxs RFL...

Nevin...

The APS, would probably be too quiet for you...it really doesn't blow off until you hit really high boost levels...if you saw the openings (2), you would know that it didn't make much noise...no horn or anything like that, just two oval looking holes for the air to escape...

If you want a noisier 50/50...the GFB is probably your best bet...maybe the Turbosmart, but I haven't heard that yet...then again....the Worx V1.2 is suppose to be pretty nice...but $$$

I think it is becoming more realistic to get an adjustable recirc/atmosphere BOV, because you'll only make noise when you're boosting stupid high; at least you don't have to short shift to keep the noise down on city streets.

And, the drivability is great.
