i can see my ring that seals my tial at idle, id imagine once the engine sees boost it pushes down because of the boost line connected at the top.

at atmospheric pressure it will be full closed and opens under vacuum. How much it opens probably is determined by which spring you have. The 7psi spring will probably open more than the 11psi spring at idle.

The bov should be open but not fully open, BOV open to vacuum and when your engine is idling it is in about 22 inhg so it should be open
