I have that same Blitz one on my FD, but with a trumpet instead of the two nozzles shown in that clip of the Scooby you\'ve posted. Makes a very "whooshy" noise with the trumpet rather than the more abrupt "sneeze" in the vid there. You can change the outlet between the two sorts, or even run with none at all or a little Blitz stainless breather filter to muffle it if you want, they are all interchangeable by undoing two bolts. The HKS ones are very common, they seem to be the ones that make a cacophony of squeaks and chirps in a random kinda stylee, which I rather like, too. Does seem to be very much down to personal preference. I had a GReddy one that was like a massive bit of industrial plumbing and sounded like Armageddon, but was just too huge to fit anywhere very conveniently.

As to fitting, the easiest way is you just replace the stock recirc valve that comes off a union on the Y-pipe with the dump valve pipe and blank off the old pipe at the airbox/filter. Use one of the blanked off nipples on the turbo side of the UIM plenum as the actuator vaccuum line take-off for the dump valve. Ideally, to be most effective, I think you would want it as close to the throttles as possible, but that\'d mean more permanent and intrusive mods to the elbow or I/C pipes, depends on how much you want it to be effective, and how much you just want it to make a funky noise
