ppl tell me my car sounds like an f-16 because of the wastegate

 

That is not a bad analogy. THey rip.


ROAD/RACE

 

yeah my car has the nick name "the jet".....im thinking about extending the wastegate pipe father down the car so i can hear spool but eveyone else can hear wastegate....heh

 

I can now say I totally understand! At first I thought something was wrong! At WOT - that TIAL is freaking loud! I want a downpipe made that recircs it, so I can hear the spool/BOV as well.

 

just extend the pipe back to infront of the rear wheels and dump it there....u should be able to hear the the spool and BOV better....but everyone else gets the BRAMMMMMMM

 

lol, I was just thinking of something.. remember the woooo wooooo internet video? The one where they put the whistle on the exhaust? hahahaha.. well, put one of those on the wastegate and see what happens. The exhaust is coming out like 10x faster in a smaller tube. It would probably sound like a screaming monkey or something.

 

bwahahaha

 

hahaha! i just might do that

 

so theres no way to make our cars vent in the atmosphere, i like it b/c ppl always ask me to make my bov go off and i cant til i start driving cause u cant hear it when i rev my engine! I like how on my buddies subaru he can go , "vrooom vrooom psshhh" I hate how its quieter.

 

Atmosphere venting causes bad readings to the MAS. Evo can't do it either unless they are reading with a map sensor (AEM Stand alone ECU)

so there is no way u can make a recirulating bov sound louder?

 

yeah vta ***ed up me cars idle

 

If you're only running 5 psi relocate the MAF to the charge pipe just before the throttle body. A couple of people have it there and don't have any issues overruning the MAF, it may throw a CEL though due to the positive pressure. As long as the MAF is the last thing on the charge pipe before the throttle body the bov venting to atmosphere wont be an issue. If you don't want to go that route get a really loud aftermarket BOV like a greddy Type RS or S and vent it back to an aluminum intake pipe (not rubber or anything) and you should be able to hear it. It wont be anywhere near as loud as VTA but you will hear it

 

VTA>recirc. If you can't impress middle school girls, who can you impress?! (aside from yourself pinned in the driver seat from that RRM stage 2 turbo) rawr!

 

VTA is sooo annoying especially those BOV that sound like a Teridactile(<---not even close on the spelling). i love the way recirculating sounds...i nice whooosh!
