These cars are picky. If you want a louder BOV I would either just buy one or get an intake and tune the car. I wouldn't just start plugging things up.

Without the tube your car is VTA. Doing that without being tuned for it will mean your car will run richer when it vents (air is escaping to the atmosphere instead of going back into your intake). Probably not a huge deal.
