See these Dual port valves would you just run them in the standard place below the airbox area?

Yeah cos i had my GFB one there for about 6 months and to tell you the truth it sounded rubbish and was such a pain to adjust.

Because you get the best sound when the car is under load so you had to keep crawling under the car to make adjustments.

Thats why i moved it.

ORIGINAL: cukilo
I really want the BOV sound but i dont want to sacrafice power TOO much (i would be willing to sacrafice a little)?
Why does this statement seem so crazy to me? People are willing to sacrifice ANY amount of power just for the BOV sound????

I don't get it either. To me, it sounds like something broke in the engine bay.

i love the BOV sound....i'd sacrafice a couple horses, if that's all i was sacraficing...but the exhaust system is too expensive to take the risk imo. still a big fan of BOVs on other turbos though....

Forget the damage it can do to the Audi system. When I hear one on some other carEither it sounds like a hose came off or it sounds like the driver is auditioning for another Too Fast Too Furious movie. It's as bad as too much chrome, in my opinion.

Again... just my opinion.
