Not the best question to ask on this forum .... as you'll see.
IMHO it's your car so do what you want to it. As for which one - try and avoid the fakes and Forge or HKS seem to be the best.
Just don't own up to having one on here .....

before the thread implodes as they usually do with the question you asked.
if you like the noise then get one and if you do make sure its a decent one like hks etc.
it may cause slight running issues but most dont and will be fine.

It's helpful to have rhino skin when asking particular questions, however it's your car therefore your choice, if you want one then get one but listen to the advice given. Wooooosh!

Back to back dyno runs showed an increase of 36.4bhp and when it was carbon wrapped it also added an extra 12bhp but that was because i used the gloss wrap not the matt (more aerodynamic)
The best mod by far was the flamer kit which turned the afterburner vortex into a real afterburner and added a whopping 213bhp and 434lbft ,
Yes bold claims but we proved this when i beat my mates sti in mc donalds drive through

I've just bought a 55 reg wide track blob. It had a dump valve and I've requested it be swapped for an original recirc before I take delivery.
They are too chavtastic. Best suited to rs turbo fiestas and punto gt's

This probably won't go down well, but if you want a good "psssh" noise I would go for the Bailey valves (I think they sound good).
