You can use an oem supra tt deal for cheaper. You need to return anyways. But between the two, I'd go with hks.

Like some of what the others say, its all a matter of personal preference. On one of my cars i use the HKS SSBOV, on my 240 i use the Blitz Super Sound, on my SC i use the HKS... to me the HKS is just my favorite.

there are other options too such as turbo XS, Sheepdog, GReddy, A'pexi. Each of those are VERY loud

I Have HKS SSQV, Its very good, I like it because its not too obnoxious. But it does give off a nice sound.

my 2 cents... unless you're running with no MAF(ie EMS, VPC, etc..) then I'd choose a BOV that recirculates such as the HKS or Greddy... or even stock (stock is the fastest reacting BTW).

Between the HKS and Greddy... I'd definately go HKS because it uses a push/pull system whereas the the other BOVs uses a piston type setup. The push/pull setup is modeled after the stock toyota BPV.
