you'll be good with the BOV

all u have to do is choose if u want recirculated ( quieter but brings some of the air back into the inducer ) or NON-circulated which dumps all the air into the atmosphere for that really viscious turbo blow off sound.

A bypass valve with help keep the inducer speed between shifts on a manual tranny. Since im an auto and that don't matter I just wanted a bypass valve because I really don't like BOV sound.. it just seems ricer to me

The larger the opening the deeper the sound generally, it will just sound like a big sigh if your lucky. The most subtle sound is usually a recirc.
