Stock SR Blow Off Valve nosie?

How loud is the stock blow off valve on the SR20DET, this is a question for people who own SR20DET's. Is it noticable or really quiet

mine's not too bad. it gets drown out when i've got my stereo turned up, but mine's been placed close to my filter, so it can be heard a little clearer than others.

Its gonna be pretty quiet because its a re-circulating valve and does not dump to atmosphere.

You want a loud BOV...the TurboSX RFL BOV is THE loudest one I've heard personally.

why not just get rid of your diverter valve, let the backpressure kill your turbo, and install one of these!

Wow only $180! Thats a better deal that some of the real BOV's out there!

Now this is funny:

Vacuum pressure switch to trigger SUNAMI at a set boost level.

hahaha..boost level? You have to have some serious issues to add this on top of BOV
