No BPV is going to be as audible as a BOV.

Nobody really runs BOV's on the 1.8t's because they can cause you to run rich and trip the CEL I think. Turbosmart makes a "hybrid" BOV/BPV but I don't know anyone that's running one. If it's the sound you're after, you might wait for this.<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/a4comingsoon2nd.htm">http://www.ecstuning.com/a4comingsoon2nd.htm</a</li></ul>

If you want more sound, you gotta open up the intake. Get an intake kit, or do the airbox mod in the tech section. I'd recommend drilling holes in the bottom of your airbox, and NOT cutting the fluted tube going into the MAF. And dont run a BOV.
