Default hks bov WTF

My BOV sounds like a bird whistle when I shift, is this the way it's supposed to sound? Can I modify the thing to make the sound a little more discreet?

Most bov's sound like "flutters" or otherwise a bird under your hood, my vortech sounds the same.

I heard the Type S has that signature pshhhhhhhhhhhhhhh but I don't have money to waste on a BOV I don't need , if it works why replace it, besides I need important things like bigger injectors and tuning.

the HKS SQV bov is *supposed* to make a whistling sound when it does its thing.. that's what has made them unique from the others

i can't believe you bought the BOV without knowing what it sounds like beforehand!!

It came with the kit, I got a good deal on a used Fmax kit. It's not so bad I'm going to slash my wrists over it, but it definitely draws attention.
