These have been on pre-order for long time at SU. I sent a email and got these pictures and info that the protypes will be in very soon and the consumer ready valves will be ready in about 3 weeks time frame. They look good.

I really wish they would stop slapping on the SU logos on the SU editions. If I wanted flashy logos I wouldn't be going with plain ol' black.

Thanks for the update! Still 3 weeks to go? But I'm impatient so ignore me...
 
I'm ready to order just as soon as I know if the thing is going to make any kind of non-engine sound when it opens back to intake. I hope it sounds exactly like the stock BPV. The logos are no problem for me. A little black spray paint will take care of that!
 
There was a sound clip on there for the pre order. It was close to stock but not like the Turboxs. It still has a small high pitch at the release. At least that is what I got from the clip.
 
I'll check out the sound clip, if it's still there. I know I'm in the minority on the sound thing, but that's just me.

To me, making sounds other than the normal "fffft" of the stock BPV is sort of like the way pre-teens show off their armpit fart sounds in class once they learn how to do it. Or maybe like sticking a duck call up your ass to announce to the world when you really fart. But that's just my personal opinion.
