Best blow off valve?

Finally got my setup close to completion,but still lookin' for a blow off valve. I have the HKS ssq blow off valve right now,but don't know if I wanna keep it. Which one would be better? Any clips of your blow off valves? Thanks guys.

I think function should come first. The hks for the sc setup seems to decrease drivability. Plus Im not down for the whistle and hissing **** anyway, got that t-shirt... I have found the blitz to be the best for sound and function. I have been wanting to get a vortech bov.

I LOVE the vortech..Ive had it for about 200 miles and its great..it moves a BOAT-LOAD of air compared to the Greddy and I like that cause I get absoluetly NO compressor surge at all on my blower. I also get no wistle from thing either just ALOT of air movement

Paul...i thought you have the Mondo. Anyway, Matty...Vortech suggest you mount the Race BOV on to a 1.5" OD tubing. Did you do that, or did you just weld the flange on top the Stillen stock tubing.

I Used my old Greddy flange thats on my charge pipe. Its a tad bit bigger but it works

When I get my New 3" piping in a few days and I order the vortech flange from them, Ill probably end up mounting it the same way
