I was thinking about putting a big filter over my BOV, but I run an open wastegate, so that's not even the loudest part.

any bov that you can run as a dv (diverter valve) and just plumb it back into the intake pipe. You'll barely be able to hear it after that.

edit: dammit, beat me to the punch.

Use a divertor valve instead of a blow-off valve and reroute the air back to the intake...this is used in turbo cars that need the blown-off air to still pass thru the mass air sensors so the car doesn't run rich b/w shifts, but it's alot quiter then discharging to atmosphere..

Nice! I wish I could easily interchange them to have it loud when I want it, and stealth when I need it

get a 1g dsm or equivalent. not even that loud until high boost, but the outlet is sized well enough u can prob just run a tube from it back to the intake. and just plug up hole on intake and take off tube when u wanna hear it.

nice seeing posts like this rather than "which sounds best"

i heard.. diverting it back to the intake with plastic/rubber tubing still doesnt do much.. you'll still hear it when you're right next to the car
what would completely cancel the sound?

I don't think the BOV will give it away. I don't think you have mistake the sound turbo spooling up.

Plumb BOv back into the exhaust, zeronoise.

I'm hoping they don't hear it spooling up over their extremely loud cars. Guys I'm running against have horribly loud cars =\
