I like mine, GFB Hybrid 50/50. . . . Under high acceleration and WOT it is loud enough for 2 lanes over to hear it.

That is with a few mods, and once i put on my vf-34 i will tell you how loud it is then.

Good thing you are going with the recirc. cause most tuners suggest taking off the 100% atmospheric because of their mixed results

yeah thats why im stayin away from the 100% atmo. i would like to go with something adj. like the worx cause you can go from like 75% atmo. to 0 atom. iirc. ive heard with the gfb that alot of things can go wrong.

the WORX isnt that loud in the grand scheme of things...its louder than the stocker no doubt.... after intake silencer hack it is fairly loud (i do leave it on 20 percent atmospheric tho.

yeah i have to intake silencer removed and the stocker is loud, but only inside the car. i want it to be heard in the car next to me. if i turned to worx to 20 everyonce in awhile would it do what im looking for?

The Worx one at 100% atmospheric isn't all that loud. In normal conditions (like daily traffic) you can't really hear it (at least not in California). The GFB is the choice to go with if you want recirc + loud. I have owned both and I loved my GFB 50/50... but I had to sell it because of school .

Maybe I'll get another one in the future.

I second the GFD 50/50. Its loud enough to be heard over my helix up/dp/cat back.

GFB is the ish, i have had the full atmo, i liked it loud enough for like 3 lanes over, i have not heard the recirc, altho i have heard the recirc forge and it is pretty damn loud, but it was on a WRX with vf-22, alsoanyone know how loud the fully atmosperic forge is at WOT?

There is a place to review. . . I bought my GFB Hybrid 50/50 or 100% atmospheric at MastroWRX.com

so does the gfb 50/50 jack up the car as bad as people make it seem?

WRX Rush

No, it may create a somewhat lean condition, not to any extreme though. I actually tested this theory.

In no way does it make the car lean enough to kill anything. If you are running 100% atmospheric there might be a little more problem with turbo life. Other than that no. Go and talk to any tuners, they will say BOV's are not the best but if you must 50/50 is the best.

I got a WORX. Put it on this last Fri. night. It isn't loud at all, but it is getting louder as time goes on. They said it needs a 1000 mile break in period and after that it is probably as loud as it is going to get.

I enjoy the adjustability of it. 50/50 is good for everyday driving. Right now I have it on 100%, but will probably try 75% for a while and just mess around with it until I find the sweet spot.

In traffic it is hard to hear, but when driving down a curvy road by yourself it sounds nice. It definitely isn't meant to scare anyone with the sound. It sounds more like air brakes from a truck.

Hope this helped. If you have any more questions, feel free to post them or PM me.

i want to scare people, but i dont want to hurt my car. im pretty stuck between the worx and the gfb. dunno what to do

I'll tell ya right now that the worx won't scare anyone. Unless mine gets louder w/i the next 700 miles, it wont scare anyone.

If scaring people is truly your forte then go with the TXS RFL.
