The 808 has insane amounts of gain, and also noisy as hell, at low levels.
Mine is actually fairly quiet; no different than the Fortin TS9 I had. The 808 has better mids though, imo. Sold the TS9 after getting the 808. Both are close to each other however
 
My custom built screamer 808 shits all over any of these pedals. Plus my builder carried it around the front of his pants for a day or two just to give it that extra "sauce" on top. Super quiet and "Ballsy"....
 
TBH been considering the 808. I have the TS9 and I find it hard to remove from the chain over my SD1 but more saturation would be great.

I need to test some different preamp tubes but with MY amp the Fortin TS9 gives me JUST enough. There's no headroom but it is just enough, wouldn't mind having a little more to play around with.
But as others have said, the 808 is considerably noisier than the 9. Keep that in mind
