I am still confused, so how do I know if the BOV is working properly on a SC. Every time I let go off the gas pedal it opens up and I hear it release air. Once back on gas it closes.

However it is not open at idle and does not blow off below 3k rpm.

I have Turbosmart.

Wait you need another pump other then the 340lph?? There's no way your maxing out the 340lph.

That sounds normal to me, It should close every time u get on it or else you'd be leaking. Blowing off below 3k? It should open when you release but whether you hear it blow off is a different story. You need pressure to hear that blow off sound and I don't know if you build enough pressure under 3k to hear it. I would lower the spring tension and check for boost leaks. Have it as loose as possible without boost leaks on max psi. I think this would give you best throttle response.

on my 9psi pulley I don't really hear the stock BOV at light throttle but I can still feel it at idle. Forged told me that they have seen SC'er guys run a spring for there 15psi that turbo guys may use for 30+ psi. but I have no real world testing to say yes or no

The previous owner of my superchager had no issues with the bov. He had an aftercooler setup. I installed the supercharger with a FMIC and the bov started fluttering. When we installed the second bov the problem was solved.
