Well that doesn't make much sense because a DV recycles the air in the the system. So if you here a swoosh then you have an air leak, torn throttle boot or that new intake is loose.

In short, stay away from the BOV. Go with a Bailey, Forge, Hyperboost, etc....you'll be fine!

OOOO

bov's don't work good on audis, the only time that they would is if you have your chip programed for it but i don't reccomend it because if you did get one after every time you let off the gas it would release the excess pressure into the atmosphere but then your car would run either lean or rich after every time it released the pressure which in turn would through the exhaust manifold have carbon buildup on your catyalitic converter. and after a while you would need to get a new one and a couple of other problems would arise so overall don't get a bov its just not worth all the problems that would comes with it.But i'm pretty sure that your car already has a diverter/bypass valve on it, it should be located under the carbelow the passenger headlight and you shouldn't replace thatone unless its chipped.
