Changed the vac source to the brake booster and still got nothing. Took thhe bov appart and inspected and everything seemed to be in working condition.

when the car is at idle the bov should be open ,check if it opens.

Ah not true for all BOVs. Usually only ones designed for superchargers stay open at idle.

that flutter is normal for the ssqv. it is not compressor surge. ssqv is a duel stage bov hence the sequential in the name. lower boost levels will flutter like a nasty queef. higher boost levels will give you the second stage "CHIRP!!''. my ssqv sounds exactly like that video on lower boost levels.
heres a video of what compressor surge really sounds like.

diaphram bovs are the ones that are usually open

piston ones should stay closed.
