Not sure, but ...
I don't think there's a way to cheat the control parameters when your BOV opens. Since the system is Mass Air, you're kinda' stuck in terms of how the ECU calculates air entering the combustion chamber. Any venting of that metered air to atmosphere in a closed system will make your car run rich and potentially stall.
I believe there was a company out there that made a BOV kit for the A4. Uses a Blitz SBOV I believe. Might want to try them .. I think they had an article in Max Power (US) a few months back.

Here's an idea: just get a BPV instead. I'm sure it will be easier, cheaper, and make the car...
perform better. You don't often get that combination when considering modifications!

Greedspeed sells a BOV kit...
...as well as SPW. Basically, to mount a BOV, you'll need a custom flange to mount the darned thing. Also, if you REALLY want to do this, I suggest you rig up the BOV to work like a BPV. You'll still get the sound, though slightly muffled, w/out the rich condition if done right.
