Vortech won't stop hissing

I never had a Stillen SC. I do have a Stillen exhaust. But it doesn't matter. We're on the same page now.
With the BOV that Vortech uses . It will whistle in a certain blower rpm range . After I put on te T-trim , the whistle went totally went away . But with this all cog pulley set up , I put on a bigger pulley . Slowing the blower down at idle and cruise and it [ the whistle ] has come back again . You can hear it at idle or at a 65mph cruise . It all depends on how much air is passing by the Bypass BOV at the time .

I haven't been able to fully push the Vortech yet, but even boosting up to around 5-6psi so far, it seems to be a little quicker...

I'm already running an upgraded setup with the 3.12 pulley, RC 440's, Walbro 255, and UTEC. Should already be quite a bit faster... I'll probably go 2.87 & 550's in the near future...

I think the 3.12 is around 9psi. I've pretty much been hitting 8.5-9.5 according to the peak hold on my boost gauge. Not really sure about the 2.87.
I threw that filter on the bypass valve last week...didn't do much. Quieted it down some, but almost negligible. Still loud as all hell when you get off the throttle and coast!
