different BOV sounds

I've heard really quiet wooshy BOVs, really loud wooshy BOVs, and BOVs that make a chirp or squeaking sound. I want the one the squeaks/ chirps. What BOV would give me that sound and how much does it recirc?

I know your going for sound...but your stock BOV is your best bet...good for 20psi. Just my two cents. Check out the classified adds, people swap/sell BOVs all the time and then you could just pick up the recirc kit for the $40.
