They do make one, and you can get it for cheap on Ebay. HKS Auction You will need the steel weld-on flange to bolt it on which is sold separately. You should get it, I was just thinking about getting it, but I wanted to wait it out a little and keep the Greddy, since I didn't wanted to get another flange welded on and end up not liking it as much as the Greddy and would have to get the Greddy welded on again. I think the HKS is much louder and has a higher frequency sound over the Greddy. Also click on the link to hear sample clips of BOV's.

Those bastards lowered their price.. I ordered mine from the same place and I paid around $190 plus shipping... LoL..

But It's all good.

Anyone install this on their sc? How does it sound?? Deep? High pitch? Gozilla?
How did you mount it to your s/c piping?? Which flange did you use?

I might be at Rockville tomorrow night if weather is good. I actually went tonight and there wasn't ,pre than like 10 people, but among the people that were there, I did turn heads with the Greddy BOV. Ask the seller if he carries them, I think I asked him before and he offered 20% off retail price, whatever that is.

Greddy sounds weak at stock boost. I need to swap the pulley, hopefully it sounds better with higher boost.

I dont know where the info is at and im not agreeing or disagreeing with it but it is NOT recommended you use a sequential BOV on the supercharger...

and also, amount of boost, piping design and other stuff effects how loud your BOV is.
