Default '13 Ecoboost Blow Off Valve

Did Ford put in a different BOV for the '13 trucks? Under hard acceleration and then stopping, my BOV is really loud on the '13, but I don't think I ever heard it on my '11 Ecoboost.

Yes, the 13 has an electronic BOV.

I feel like my 2013 is a lot louder than the 2012s I test drove. (Spooling and BOV)

I thought it had to be different - it is pretty loud now, almost turbo race car like.

The real question now is, how can I put one of these on my 11' ! I love my ford truck and I understand it doesnt run on rice..... However, I have always been a turbo guy and that turbo sound, rather from a gas or diesel, make me happy in my no no area. I would love to hear a little louder BOV sound from my turbos!

I was wondering. A friend of mine has a 12 and his turbo isn't nearly as loud as my 13. My turbos are super loud and even sound raspy at times. I was beginning to wonder if something was wrong. Btw I love my truck!

No.... that will make the spooling louder. My spool is already loud. I want to hear the PSHSHHSSSSSSSS (BOV sound) when I let off the gas under heavy acceleration.
