Default BOV Noise Comparison

Hey y’all, I’ve done some research, and my final question that I couldn’t really get a direct answer on was: “what is the noise difference from a Procharger Pro-Flo and a Procharger Bullet Value?” I’ve got a 5.7 LS1 with a vortex supercharger, running 10psi and 505wbhp. I want some good noise because it’s my toy vette, but I don’t want to **** off everyone I drive past when I do a pull.

There's no sound from BOV at WOT it closes to make boost but once off throttle vacuum open and releases the back psi and that's when you here the blow off. I have big red procharger so when 30lbs lets go i get many ugly faces because they have no clue what the hell that noise is. Probably thinking a low flying airplane.
As far as sound goes your best bet is youtube or other social media apps.

Here is a video of mine.

I have an A&A supercharger and the 50mm BOV off A&A’s website. I love this BOV, although my complaint is that I don’t hear it from inside the vehicle. It’s quite loud off the passenger side from outside the car.https://streamable.com/5v2i6f

My coupe with the F1R had a Vortech race bov.... Dang thing sounded like one very angry vacuum machine coming down the road towards you. Sort of like a A10. In front of it all you hear is the whoosh when driving, and from behind all you hear is the engine music.
