Vented BOV...No Noise?

I vented my stock BOV and no noise? I tried the top hose on the left side and then I tried the bottom hose on the left side. What the hell is going on? I thought it was supposed to be real loud. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hmmm No Noise would lead me to think there was no boost. Do you have a boost gauge.

Make sure the vac hoses are on tight and in the right spot, make sure the CRV and ABV hoses are in the right spot, do you have any boost???

I don't have a boost gauge yet but I KNOW I have boost. Proof to this is that I f**ked up a porsche carrera the other night and also an older ford lightning. Am I using the right hose? The 2 on the left side of the airbox but venting the top one...right? One goes into the middke of the y pipe and the other goes to the back of the intake I believe(can't remember, not looking at it). Any ideas?

Well if you took off the right hose you will defanitly hear it. From the passenger side of the car looking at the airbox its the seond hose down from the top. If you follow that hose back a few inches you will see a brown flying soucer looking thing. Thats your blow off valve. If this is the one you vented into the atmosphere you sould hear it LOUD when you let off from high boost.
