If you really want the Tu tu tu... / intermitant sound. Then don't get a bov. During throttle off/butterfly closed, the compressed air goes back through compressor fins in the turbo and it is this that makes the Tu tu tu sound.

Sure you can get a Bov, install it and screw it down hard so it never opens and you get the same tu tu noise out the turbo, but whats the point getting a Bov then?

the whole point of having a blow off valve is to blow off air running back to the throttle if u close the blow off valve the air will run back out of the turbo and that will cause shaft play and f your turbo
