Default DV or Blowoff???

I want to get that great blowoff sound in my 1997 A4 1.8T Quattro. But I've been hearing its not good to put it in an audi. If so whats the best way to go and could i still get that sound?

Upgrade your DV to a Forge and get an intake. It won't be loud, but you'll hear it.

LOL hire some mexicans to sit in your back seat and make a woosh noise evertime you shift....haha no but seriously you can get a GFB hybrid BOV basically it is a dv/bov it was made in australlia. you can get best of both worlds by tuning it to 40/60 or 50/50 depending on how much boost you want and how loud you want to whoosh to be lol... Audi's are not ment to have bov MAF is in wrong spot to do that. BUT if you want to spend alot of money you can tune your car to be stand alone... im not going to get into that...

Like every1 said dont get a BOV... get a intake and it will pretty much make it sound like u have a BOV. I have a Carbonio carbon fiber intake myself and a 710 DV and it sounds great!!!

You can get a bov, but you will get flamed by everyone on here and your car will run rich every time you shift, which in time(years) can hurt your engine. It is not good to do unless you are going bt with custom software.
I personally have an evo dv and it sounds great. The only reason I am going to a bov is so that I can relocate it next to the tb and hopefully reduce some of my lag when shifting.

I understand the feeling of wanting the sound cause i have 2 BOV's on my supra and its the greatest sound ever but you do need to take there advice because what the DV does thats so different from the BOV is that it recirculates the air that is released instead of a BOV blowing it into the atmosphere.
