To find the best you need to raise the slide valve, cap off the outlet then fill it with uncooked rice, the one that holds the most is by definition "the best".

White or brown rice...long or short grain rice? Posting in technical forum requires detailed info...you know this:-(

Well everyone knows you would use a control rice to remove any variable or your BoV choice would be compromised/null :p

If you have'nt already, view some youtube vids and see which one sounds the best to you. Maybe that will help in your decision.

To be fair, blow off valves can have an effect on gaining power and performance of the car. If you get a cheap bov its most likely going to leak boost, or not be able to hold higher amounts of boost. This will obviously hinder power gains. You also need to decide between a stock style that recirculates back into the intake, or one that vents into the atmosphere. Each of these has different affects on the performace of the car. So there are things to consider other than just how good it sounds, or how ricey it sounds :biglaugh:

Technicly from a performance aspect, most race cars don't run them...

On a road car, you'd a moron for not running one, or you have a tree that grows turbos...
