greddy type s blow off valve

I installed my blow off valve in my fd, and the whole reason I got this one over the hks is because the snappy, whistly sound it makes. Now for some reason I can't seem to make it make that soumd on mine. I know this is a very minor problem compared to all the other things we run into on these cars, but it is just annoying me a little.

Isn't the Type-S the one that sort of sounds like glass is breaking?

I think you want the sound of the HKS super sequential blow off valve. The Greddy one just makes a loud pst sound.

The GReddy Type-S definitely has a whistle to it. Glass breaking? Never heard of a BOV that sounds like a window being smashed...
