I'd be checking for a boost leak. Is the car performing as you think it should?BennyThis! I've got a thread on it in this section I posted yesterday.

I have had the throttle body joiner checked and its fine but tomorrow I will take it to a sponsor tuner to have a listen and see if it normal or not. Its really loud with the window down.Checked all the I/c piping and seems fine. The car performs well much quicker than the BA I sold.I will let you know tomorrow arvo after I get back from the tuner.

broke Donating Members 229 Member For: 13y 3m 1d Gender: Male Posted 09/05/12 07:47 AM Share Posted 09/05/12 07:47 AM (edited) broke is your engine standard?yeah mate as far as I know it's stock as a rock. I checked all the connections and doesnt appear to be any leaks that I can tell. I think the video exaggerated the induction noise a little more. it's not as loud in the cabin as it sounds in the video. the BOV noise is really only audible when all the windows are up and the music is off. with windows down I dont hear it unless I give it boot fulls. the car doesnt behave abnormally at all it's been rock solid in my time with it (touch wood.) only mod I know of is K&N. and to be honest I only assume this as it has a K&N sticker near the air box, ive actually never opened it to see for myself. also snorkel I believe is just the stock one.Sounds like a crazy BOV, mine is a FG MK2 manual and does not do it, even had a go on the way home today and nothing.sorry I should have specified ive vented the stock BOV Edited 09/05/12 07:49 AM by broke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
