Forge DV's as BOVs

Has anyone tried using their Forge DV's as BOVs?

So instead of using the hoses to recirc just let the DV's vent to the atmosphere.
Throw on some small breather filters in place of the hoses to prevent anything from getting into the DVs (similar idea as the AWE DV/BOVs)?

I'm wondering what kind of BOV noise I can expect.

Get awe blow off valves, they can be used as dv or blow off valves and have filters on them to keep them from sucking in debris. Helix sells them....I have them, they are sick, the perfect amount of woosh sound
