Default APS BOV's removed

Anyone tried the APS kit with the BOV's on and then off? I was wondering if it was much louder with them off/sounded better. Use a 1 to 10 scale with the BOV's off being a 10 as far as loudness.

What did you guys use to cap the turbo intake holes?

People are using walker caps from ACE Hardware to cap the flange off. Others have just cut them off and welded them shut.

I bought two Turbosmart Megasonic BOV's and i plan on using the Walker Cap method.
