The forge one is reasonably loud, but nowhere near as loud as a HKS. Personally, I wish I had bought a HKS. Instead I am thinking of modifying my forge one because the air pressure coming out of the valve is the same, just the way it comes out...

so people say...! mine is fine and has been for over a year, my fueling was said to be spot on at a rolling road session... My oil doesnt smell of fuel e.t.c....

You can buy a recirculating DV if its a problem... most of the jap dump valves have recirculating kits that can be bought either seperatly or as part of the kit.

I stuck with a normal OE one as I didnt want the noise and the fact a good one is the best part of £300 for no real gain IMHO.

I looked it to dump valves when i bought one. HKS seemed the best as with some of the others, people had idling problems (especially with the HKS).
