Turbo Wastegate/BOV Sound N55

Is there anything we can do to the N55 that would increase the sound frequency of the BOV? Anyone tried anything like this? I over heard this thing the other day with the windows down and while it was faint, I thought it sounded pretty awesome (never owned anything turbo-charged in the past). Just curious if there isn't some sort of recirculating line/hose you can disconnect to turn up the volume w/o hemming up performance.

Get the BMS intake I got one used for 120 bucks, really brings out the sound of the bov between shifts and when you release the throttle.

Is this bov plug and play or does it requires some modification? Hows the sound? Any check lights on when installed?

It replaces the stock diverted valve. Direct bolt in. It vents to the atmosphere.
