What BOV can be redirected to intake??

Now this thread kinda hits on a subject I've been pondering during my enforced downtime, if I were to plumb in an extra BOV (Currently fitted is a Bailey twin piston valve, was thinking one more of the same) is the effectively doubled BOV venting capacity going to do anything other than produce a shorter, sharper "PSHH" when coming off the throttle?

(Bearing in mind I have an auto so am not worried about reducing spoolup/lag times post gearshift, just after venting quicker primarily to scare peds. more, but also on the theory that quicker venting of excess boost on closing the throttle might be better for the turbo bearings...)
