Hi "josh w" and welcome to the forum. Enjoy your stay and enjoy the wealth of knowledge on the forum.

I believe this has been asked before and a few people will advise that the search function at the top right is your best friend. ;)

Everyone will have an opinion on what the best brand is, but really it all depends on your budget m8.

Alot of people will get piping based on what aftermarket intercooler they get, to ensure it all inter connects.

Most people remove the stock intercooler and block the pipes to help get more sound. Others buy aftermarket BOV instead.

Do a search and you will find the info you are after.

I'm not sure how effective that would be Masda ;)

dafaq... that is meant to be BOV. why would someone remove the IC?

The second sentence on that line clearly shows BOV.

Typo or I am getting too old.

As Marco (Masda) stated, people can mod the factory setup to get a louder sort of sound. More boost will always help with the noise as well. Again, many people have opinions on good brands, I for one am always a fan of Process West gear. Also intake is always a good mod, even on factory turbo/tune etc you can get a nice intake sound with an aftermarket intake. Again I love the factory side process west intake (not turbo side). Depends what you are going for, sound/performance etc. There's many questions and many answers, it's generally a pretty friendly place here and you should be able to find most things somewhere or other.

Speaking to workshops can always help with any questions you are unsure of. What state are you in? Generally there's a handful in each state people will recommend over others due to experience and tuning ability's.

And welcome :)
