Dump valve and BOV are essentially the same thing.

Difference between atmospheric and recirc is that the atmospheric will dump outside the air intake system (louder) and the recirc should dump back to the inlet side of the turbo (quieter)

Technically the recirc should aid performance, as it keeps the turbo spinning a fraction more during gear changes but realistically you won't notice the difference.

Go for louder :-)

Forge uk do them for the 2.0 tfsi theres a few options you can buy a complete forge unit very expensive or theres a forge part that bolts behind the standard vale to give an atmospheric sound , the standard vale is fine if just running a remap but older/high millage ones can be prone to fail ,theres loads of them on ebay try searching for mk5 golf gti or audi tt / s3 all with 2.0 tfsi this will give you more search results.
