Has anyone replaced their charge relief valve with BOV?

When venting either one does it need filtering, or can it just be disconnected from the airbox?

Tri-Point puts little filters on them when they install their colder than hot air box. My friend thinks it's cause it sucks air but I think they do it to quiet down blow off noises. I don't hear his BOV at all.

They are the same exact part (the CRV and the BOV, they are both BOVs), in anycase, i vent mines to atmosphere and my friends say that when I blowoff at about 5-7psi, they can hear it about 10 cars back with the windows down and about 5 cars back with their windows up (I kinda question this since it sounds pretty soft from the inside). I'm running non-seq with only 1 stock bov right now with slight modificatins to the stock bov 
BTW: My stock BOV is the loudest I have heard with the exception for a friend with a MKIV Supra which is running about 28-30+psi with a old style greddy/hks bov (I forget which one), that thing is freakishly loud and sounds like a lazer gun.

When you are at idle, the CRV is open (there's vacuum at the little hose) and you are pulling vacuum at the manifold. Seems to me you are sucking air back through the CRV.
I'm not saying this is right because I haven't checked, but it seems logical...
Am i missing something?
