I may be wrong. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25971-turbosmart-blow-off-valves-thread/page/7/#findComment-631260 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you switch to the same aftermarket BOV on both, they pretty much sound the same. My brother has a megasonic on his R34 and it will make the gobble gobble at low boost and the sudden Pussshhh high in the rev range. My T does exactly the same thing.

Both cars run low boost levels as standard. I love the sound of the T with no BOV on it. Don't like the sound of the skylines full stop.
