the more boost you run, the more washers you should put in...8psi 0-1 washers 30psi 6 washers

the washers are just for added weight, makes it harder to open up, when your at 30psi or some ---- and u got no washers, that things gonna shoot up really fast, u dont want it to fly outta there...and if ur running little boost, and u put too many in...it wont open up and will create problems for you

a bov will not sound any different with the washers in or not...its just makes the piston inside heavier a bit...

the bov makes is at its loudest at highest rpms/when your at maximum boost...if you shift at like 4k rpm it wont be as loud, but dont get me wrong the rfl is still really ------ loud

Huh? Not exactly. The washers put more tension on the spring, which keeps it closed longer so it won't open under a small amount of pressure(boost).

Also, nothing is going to "fly out of there".

you dont need to worry about making it louder...this is the loudest BOV I have ever heard. My friend's GSR at 8psi has a rediculous blow off even when he shifts at 3 or 4k rpms.

It's not like you're running a T4 on a chyrsler big block with your setup. There will be a limit on what you can do with your motor.

IMO the 1g DSM BOV is more then capable of handling whatever you want it to do for a nice price. There are mods to make it quick releasing and louder.

It's your money, do what u want. Whatever company u buy it from I'm sure will be happy to send u a test sample of the BOV in action.
