Is this an automatic car with a BOV?

I have an automatic 335i and I am looking into a BOV but im wondering what it would sound like just driving around while in shifting mode shifting around 4k rpms. What about if I were to let off the gas before shifting, then it should make the pssst sound correct? Heres a video I found on Youtube of a 335i with a BOV and from the launch to me it sounds like an automatic car, can someone confirm this. Thanks Mike.......http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pphxo...elated&search=

It will be pretty pointless on an auto....youll hear it but not as much as opposed to a manual.

I have the AA BOV installed in my car. You don't hear it unless you let off the gas. Shifting through gears and stuff...you cant hear it.
