So, correct me if I'm wrong (still an MS6 newb) but when I was driving my car cold today I could swear that I heard the faint whoosh of what seemed to the stock BOV discharging whenever I'd push the clutch in and let off the guys (shifting gears). This is only under easy driving. I don't seem to hear it when I drive the car aggressively as it warms up. My car's completely stock, as well.
Hooah and thanks!

I was under the impression the MS6 had a stock BPV, not BOV.

It is a BPV, but people around here use BPV and BOV interchangeably (even though they are not the exact same thing).
With the colder weather, I can hear the stock BPV more, yes.

3100 rpm in third and a quick but smooth release of the gas will guarantee you one, its also my favorite downshift to kill it in retard traffic.
