I believe you can feed the blowoff back into the exhaust AFTER the turbo to quiet it.

First question though should be what is your car, signatures really help? and what mods do you already have?

Then what sort of fabriction skills do you have?

Why not swap a SS 3.8L blower motor in? If nothing else the shortblock may be a little more robust and you could still do the turbo if dead set on that kind of boost.

Fair warning though, one time I raced a 04 SS might have had a K&N filter but that is it, at the strip I beat him with my 95 Roady wagon with 180K on it almost no mods to the wagon, maybe a intake resonator delete or other free stuff but no exhaust or anything.
