I've talked about turbo noise with some people on here before and mentioned that my car makes lots of it. So I took a quick drive with my iPhone shoved in the headrest and filmed it. Whoooossshhhkshh

Nice, mine is similar, but sounds more like a squirrel in a blender.

Cone air filter?

I do the exact same thing to record some videos from my car. I do wish my car made these alien sounds. Also, you should get rid of the BOV for maximum lulz and sex appeal.

Same thing with my GTI. Lots of turbo noise. Although with the windows up, the sound tube pumps mostly engine noise through.

The wife is not a fan of turbo noises. This frustrates me greatly.

Do those cars have factory BOV or is it recirculating?

I lol'd. That is the weirdest BOV I've ever heard. Sounds like a pigeon call.

It's factory. With the stock intake you never hear it

And boom goes the turbo lol.

Surge may sound cool, but mechanically it is not.

And that kids is why you keep your blow off valve. Although I think the Perrin turbo kit on the Subaru takes away the BOV. Don't know why, but I am also not 100% sure if that is true.
