greddy BOV question

ok, so i bought/installed my greddy type RS bov today, and i noticed that it doesnt make any noise. it is completely quiet. im not to concerned, because i kind of like it to be quiet, but i dont know if it is supposed to be quiet like that. i adjusted it several times, and there was no change. I do know that it is working, because sitting in the driveway, and revving up to 4-5k you can place your hand in front of it, and feel a very deffinitive air surge. Can those of you that have the type RS on your FC please verify this for me?

stock t2 fcs dont produce that much boost, so its hard to make it loud. I would just adjust by loosening it until you hear it blow off.But not too loose where its leaking . Or get aboost controller and a fuel cut defencer to make it boost harder so youcan get the sound. But becareful not to set the boost too high with the fcd because itll make it too lean and can make the motor die.

hmm, well, its very much not stock, and the boost has been turned down to about 12psi, so im still confused as to why i cant even hear the darn thing at all....
and, yes, i adjusted it all the way out, to where it was the softest it will reasonably go, and still nothing.
thanks for the reply though.
