need help with bov

Guys im going to be turbocharging my civic with in the next month or so, im trying to decide on the blow off valve i want. Im trying to decide between the hks super sequental, the blitz, or something like the turbo xs one. Im not trying to make a sleeper so i pretty much want the loudest most agressive sounding one on the market. Please try and help me out.

I heard the BLITZ Blow Off Valve is the best, but it also doesn't come cheap. But I heard from many people that have the Blitz that they say that the Blitz BOV sounds amazing. But I don't know, I've never heard aftermarket BOV before.

Honestly, I hear that the only really functional BOV is the HKS. I could care less about sound, I want the damn thing to do its job. I mean I don't want it to sound like crap, namely the sound effects from TFATF.

Then again I am no BOV expert, my last turbo had a built in wastegate, so I didn't have to bother with a BOV. Please someone correct me if I am wrong. I plan to have them down soon as I will need one for the project GTC.

I've heard the HKS SSQ, my Greddy Type S, and the Blitz SS BOV. I like the HKS and Blitz over my Greddy. The Blitz can be loud AND quiet depending on which extension is on the end of the air port. I like the look of it, but it IS expensive. The best all around in my book is the HKS and I LOVE the way it sounds.
