Default Vortech BPV vs BOV

I have been searching and I can't find exactly what I am looking for.

I am wondering how the BPV compares in sound to a BOV. (Vortech)

I was wondering if its as loud, louder, quiter, if it sounds good when it blows off etc.

Any comments on the sound?

I can't find any video on youtube or streetfire to do any justice..

you can put what ever blow off valve you want on it just make sure that at idle it is venting the pressure the charger is making at idle

I've heard the Vortech BPV at WOT and it sounds more like a swoosh then your typical BOV sound. Now IMO the Procharger's BPV sounds more like a BOV sound when comparing the two..
