Default Question about tial q 50mm bov

Hey peeps, quick question.

I'll been watching videos of supercharged s2k and the tial bov is pretty loud, where else mines a turbocharged s2k I can't hear shit. All vacuum lines are correct, bov opens and idle and close once I give it some gas. I understand that the turbos has to generate boost but I'm generating boost and still it's not loud at all, you can bearly hear it over the wastegates. Could it be that my current spring in the bov is too soft? I believe I have a 5psi. Thanks

So using the 10psi made hearing the bov easier???

A 2 psi springs sounds like it won't hold boost???

I'm not even sure how to post videos here, lol. It's just odd that the bov is quite. When I had this on my booster crx it was quite too. Even my buddies sftwd civic with the same bov is quite too. So I'm assuming it's the spring.

The 2psi spring is designed for superchargers only i believe. Im making 6psi on my supercharger and its extremely loud.

Its because a supercharger's boost is relative to rpm where a turbo is driven by load
