Sound Clips of HTA Green?

I searched for a long while but could not find what I was looking for. I would like a sound clip from inside the car of an HTA green on a 2.0l motor. I just took my first spin and it sounded so different. I do have the 84mm comp. housing and knew it would impact sound but I want to make sure nothing is wrong...

Thank you guys.

^^ I bet it sounds SICK!

Could you post up a video of your car if possible?

Some of us aren't lucky enough to hear the sound of the Green/Red/Black when we hit boost.

Are you talking about the mini-diesel truck whistling noise?

THe 84mm cover will make things sound much louder. I am betting that everything is normal. The one thing you want to watch out for and listen to is anything that sounds like a metal on metal whine. If you hear that it means that the induction blades are just barely touching the comp cover. Enjoy the noise, it sounds like a big rig turbo on steroids.

I have a video of my BBK Full with the 84mm housing if you want to listen to that. The sound is probably pretty similar.

I cannot say enough good things about FP. First of the customer service is outstanding, Robert took the time to discuss my set up and recommend the right turbo for my application. Turn around time was three weeks door to door and the turbo and port work are beautiful. IMHO it is no surprise that FP owns the stock frame turbo market, 10 years of R&D and proven results will do that...

I have only drove the car about 10 mins since install and have not laid into the boost due the tune not being done, but I can tell you this, the car feels much stronger and that little green just wants to spool At first I thought something may be wrong but now all I can say is WOW, I don't me to blow smoke but my evo sounds down right mean Hope fully I will break the 425 hp mark, we will know in the next few days! I'll keep you guys updated...
