which BOV is better, HKS or GREDDY?

These are the two models I'm comparing:

HKS Super Sequential blow off valve kit -
1987-92 Mazda RX7




GReddy Blow Off Valve Kit - Type RS blow off valve kit
1987-92 Mazda RX-7 turbo models

everyone has there own opinion. HKS is what I have and love it. The Greddy Type RS, I havent heard, but I like the Greddy Type S. most people i know and meet with turbo cars have hks ssqv or hks racing bov.

Man, everyone around here has the SSQV. I've been hearing lots of them lately from Evo's, STi's and SRT4's. I say get the GReddy Type RS. It sounds like a sneeze, followed by a shrill. Type S is just a shrill. Can't seem to find a video right now, but the turkey goble rerouted sounds so funny.

I would NEVER buy the SSBOV again...the damn thing sounds like a squeaking noise...and it causes annoying compressor surge when driving gently.

If you buy it ... get used to boost gooble gooble

I would like to meet the little asian man that thought that noise was cool....and put a speaker in his pillow so he has to listen to it every night he sleeps!
