I can't afford a drysuit. Lol. But my BP/w with 25 pound wing works great. Had a lp inflator malfunction at 40 feet and was able to comfortably swim my rig up. With a HP100 tank. Good read.

How deep are you planning on going. I asked the same question on this site and the perdix always came up as one of the best. My local lds owner is a well known east coast wreck/ tec diver and he swears by them. If you do get the ostc 4 let me know how it works for you.
