My first turbo car... A few ?'s

Just bought a 2015 Golf R. I have zero knowledge about turbos and am excited to learn. One question. Can I get a blow off to atmosphere with this car? I love turbo sounds. I ordered an intake and turbo muffler delete. But is it possible to get that solid blow off sound from my car?

Do not get a blow-off valve. Our cars are designed to divert and recirculate the charge rather than vent it. If you get a blow-off value, the turbo has to work harder to build that boost again.

I wouldn't bother changing to a BOV. As long as you got open style intake it will be loud enough combined with turbo muffler delete. Also a tune will give louder induction noise as boost is raised. Tune obviously will give you loads more power and torque.
