PLEASE don't EVER buy a TurboXS BOV. They are total garbage. Just stick with a Greddy, HKS, Tial or Blitz. If the sounds really matter that much, do a search on some of the DSM forums, someone had a page with a bunch of different sound files and vids of different BOV's.
My buddiy had a Turbo XS BOV and he used it as a paperweight. POS. -
I had a Turbo XS Type H on my car for about 15 minutes. Felt like ass and too freakin loud. Switched back to my 1g BOV and went much faster and sounded ok.
I have yet to buy anything other than a Tial or Greddy Type-S. The best sounding BOV for the least bucks is the good ol' 1g BOV. Crush it and do the complete mod from here:

Very nice, loud with hard IC and intake pipes. With T3/T4 turbos it sounds absolutley awsome. Only down-side to a 1g BOV is it's not for cars making over 500-550hp. The discharge is too small to prevent throttle body damage, compressor surge, etc.

Any bypass valve that vents into the atmosphere will be loud. Most stock bypass valves vent back into the intake manifold and makes a kind of whoosing noise rather than the bus-like psst you get from the atmospheric BOV's. The purpose of a bypass valve is not to increase horsepower, but to save the life of a turbo. Keep in mind that if you vent into the atmosphere instead of back into the intake manifold you might encounter idling problems.

Quick question about aftermarket BOV's for you WRX owners out there...when your's vents, does it sound like it is mounted under the dash? I swear mine sounds like it's right behind the speedometer.
