No, because it's not a valve that's making that noise. WRC cars don't have DV's, and the chirping you hear is air pulsing back past the turbo blades.

If you want your car to make the same sound (and get better throttle response into the bargain), remove the dumpvalve completely and blank off the pipes/flanges that its removal has left.

How long the turbo will last in this state is anybody's guess, but if you want the same sound, that's how you get it.
