Don't think after market valve would much diff to sound.  How much actual pressure does a 1.4t generate?

Does it need to sound like something from a "fast & furious " movie?
It generally won't perform any better. Spend the couple of hundred $ on gripper tyres or variable boost controller.  Or a couple of cartons of beer and drive the ring off it.
