The standard one.
It wont mess up your fuelling to start with and yes its quiet, but it does the job its suppose to do, and you gain zero, nothing, ziltch performance from fitting one so spend your money elsewhere.

Hey, so is their absolutley nothing to be gained by fitting a D.V? If so why do so many people swear by them, even scooby owners who use their cars for trackday events... I thought the purpose of them was to release the waste air pressure built up by the turbo to improve spool up time..??

For the turbo to spool up it needs to spool down, releasing the gasses spool the turbo down, a recirc actually keeps the gasses flowing though by recirculating them around again so you dont have to spool down/up.
You tell me which ones the better
