If you want a quieter Pchh sound with a bit of flutter then just vent the stock bov. If you want a Loud Pchh sound then buy an aftermarket turbosmart or something with a big trumpet on it.

I took my plum-back line off (and plugged it) of my BOV for the time it takes to use a tank of fuel and it made everything WORSE, made horrible whooshing sounds when backing off the throttle, no crisp "Pssht" sound that I was expecting, fuel usage went from 550km to a tank to 400km a tank, (driving to and from work up and down freeway) it felt slower on accelleration and even at idle the discharge side of the BOV was letting pressure out, so imagine how much air it would have been passing at full noise!

I hooked my plum-back line up and left it after that, much better for me.

Anyone else had similar effects?

Dude an FG looks ever easier. You don't even have to pull the cross over off and you could pretty much fit what ever bov you like.

even if your leaking air theory is correct, hooking up the vent pipe back to standard isn't going to fix that, the leak would still be there.
