How is the Greddy Type RS BOV Suppose to sound?

I installed the Greddy Type RS on my Evo8 that has a HKS Drop in filter. What I notice is the BOV makes a loud whoosh! with a Boing! sound (like a hollow basketball sorta) on the side. Is this normal?

Boom Shack-a-lacka hahaha that's great!
It sounds like it flutters, I have it too. I have the RS kit intake from HKS. Are you VTA or recirc? Recirculate it if you are VTA. You can still hear the bov. Anywho, it is definitely a distinct sound, nothing to fret over. it's ok, nothing wrong with it

Ok cool,

Just wanted to check...

I tightned the spring some mroe today... it flutters slightly a very low boost or 2800rpm area. I might just loosen it a tad.
