Default BPV Question

I found an air diverter valve made for the audi 1.8t engines and was reading the description and it said "dumps the charge-air back into the air intake system keeping external noise to a minimum or as a blow off valve (BOV) if you prefer the sound of the excess pressure releasing to atmosphere". Would it be hurting anything if I were to release the pressure to the atmosphere? im going to be running a 9.5 psi pulley if it makes a difference.

Running a Atmospheric set-up on the s/c = useless. Keep it Recirculated. Besides, it's not just going to vent and close. When driving under load and you let off the throttle it's going to keep Venting untill the RPM get substantionally lower, or you take it out of gear. So it's going to sound like it's hissing or blowing air continously. It gets quite annoying, been there and done that.

also if you using the
Nissan Motorsports=Nismo
Honda Motorsports=Homo?

It would be Honmo. That would be like saying NISSAN Motorsports is Nimo.
