Default another bov question i need to ask.

ok, mopar bov installed, car is still running from what i can tell the same. no loss of boost not hints of a leaking sound. My question is this bov seems to go off a lot. even under very little boost but, more boost more sound. Is this normal. Im talking between 2-5 boost i can hear it sometimes.

if you stage the car this annoying trait will go away. the stages are designed with a feature that keeps the mopar bov from going off in vacuum.
