Basically, by fitting a dump valve, you will confuse the car's fuelling for a fraction of a second when you close the throttle, i.e. change gear or lift off.
Where with a recirculating valve, air is passed back into the inlet, with an atmospheric, i.e. noisy, dump valve, the air "goes missing" and so there is a bit too much fuel for a small amount of time.
In practice, this means you will feel "lag" when changing gear and it won't run as smoothly as with a recirculating valve. You'll also get pops out of the exhaust as the extra fuel explodes.
They're crap...don't do it. Fun for five minutes then you'll get bored.

I have a dp motor sports vent to atmosphere on my 94 wrx jdm and can honestly say I felt no difference between the standard one and the dp one apart from as said above I get a bit more pop backs and the bonus of a really funny granny frightening toy I know its silly but it still makes me laugh

I have this one fitted:-
Dual Stage BOV - WorxTuning Components
Won it on US ebay.
It's a hybrid, you can set to full recirc or 100% VTA, makes a nice woooosh above 4000rpm
