cold weather = high pitch bov?

why does the cold weather affect bovs? I'm running a greddy type-s recirc. Every time I let go of the gas it's really high pitched on vacuum or boost. Sometimes it seems like it's frozen or something because it lags a bit before it releases the pressure but my evo is garaged...

My APS sounded like a duck when I drive it once when it was cold, it scared the crap out of me, but it was fine once it warmed up.

Get a VTA, live with the loss of performance, and attach a duck call to the output. You can also cut a whoopy cushion in half and zip tie the functioning piece tightly to it and you will have farts blasting out of the hood vent between shifts.
