One is the Hyperboost, made for Stratmosphere, & it has fins & looks somewhat larger than the stock Bosch unit. The second is the FMDVS007P, made by Forge Motorsport, & it's a near-identical match to the Bosch unit for size & shape. The third is Forge's earlier FMDV006P design. It's larger than the 007 & doesn't have the improved internal design for better sealing & actuation, nor the improved external design for easy tuning & maintenance.

Strat used to sell the Forge units here in the US (Forge is UK based) until Strat started having someone else make similar valves under their Hyperboost house brand name. (I suppose the fins were added to differentiate their own valve from the Forge units they were carrying.) Strat's products are geared towards Audis.

Forge has been evolving & improving their own designs for a complete range of turbo vehicles for years. The "S" 007P was originally a Saab-specific model, with a "Stubby" side port to fit some of the tight confines of certain Saab engines. They would supply any valve, when purchased, with a modification-specific spring for proper valve tuning. Later they added a Spring Kit to allow owners to re-tune the valve any time they wanted. A lot of folks still like the 006P, but I feel the design has been improved (& surpassed) by the S007P. And yes, Forge also makes BOVs.

Of course, there IS another alternative....
