Default Dual Port BOV

I just got a Turbonetics 'Godzilla' (man, I hate that name) BOV. It looks like a very stout BOV. It has a enclosed operating piston with ports for both the upper and lower sides of the piston (like a dual port WG). I take it the lower port should be left open, or is anyone actually hooking it up somewhere?
Thanks

My Godzilla is vented to the atmosphere, I'm not to fond of the sound. I'm going to try putting a hose on the end and pointing it down to try to muffle it.

Back into the j-pipe and I like the sound, it's not too loud.

I wish mine was vented back in, if I had a decent welder and the know how, I'd try to rerount it myself. David, do you have a pic of your J-pipe?

Is that for a lower boost blow-off and a high boost blow-off. The hks unit uses something like that.

No it doesn't have the two stage valves nor does it sound anything like the HKS SSQ. I wish it did.

does this BOV sound exactly how it would sound when you have a MAF. Also how loud is this. Any info will help looking into might buying one.
