Boost will drop to 0psi very quickly once the throttle is lifted regardless. It is really a non-issue. The sound of the BOV all depends on the type of valve and the amount of boost being run in the first place. I have yet to notice an audible difference due to boost source for the waste gate- and I have installed more boost controllers than many here have seen . Heck, technically, I have owned over 10,000 MBC's over the years .
