I voted for the DD because I have it. It does its job, not overly loud or annoying like an HKS SSQV or anything.

loudest bov on the market TurboXS RFL (Really ******* Loud)

Greddy type RS is a balance between the the "strength" of the Type R and the quick reaction and compactness of the Type S

SSQV is pull type bov with a high and low boost actuation. since it's "pull type" it's supposedly never to leak... and if the soudn bothers u, u change the inserts which change the sound, or u can re-circulate it... I know it's been overplayed.. but honestly is one of the best designed bovs out there

if you're going for quiet, arc is pretty low key.
