Hello I just bought a auto fg xr6t ute I am very impressed with it except for one thing I was hoping the turbo would make more noise it is very very quiet, im wondering if theres anything I can do to get a bit more sound going :) just something fairly simple and cheap if possbile until my warranty ends then the real mods begin R

thx

Cheapest mod you can do without affecting warranty I believe is to replace the air muffler off your turbo.. Rapid Systems and Plazmaman make this pipe they are normally around $200 and you will definitely get some more spool/induction noise from it.

Fg hotsides already probably bigger then your aftermarket ones or at least the same size.

Replace the cone coming of your turbo, it's there to decrease turbo sound.

Probably the ally pipes as opposed to the rubber that's making the sound diff don't ya reckon?

Do both! :P

Hey buddy,

The cone replacement pipe being talked about here is pictured below as the stainless piece going from the turbo to the crossover on my car...

I found mine on eBay for $90 second hand. Still using it now with all the mods on my car but I have now had it powerdercoated satin black.

Get yourself either a complete replacement CAI utilising a pod filter with heat sheilding like a BPR airbox, these are fairly expensive though, or the plazmaman as linked to above. Especially if you plan on modding the car as the aftermarket piping kits fit very easily around this style of CAI rather than the factory style with intake snorkel.

Next step is to block off the BOV. It is easily done. It will add the tututu back off throttle sound. Nice :) Bunnings sells the parts required for this and they are pictured below.

Believe it or not but they are rubber chair leg stoppers.

This is to block the vacuum hose.

And 2 hose clamps to try and maintain a factory look.

From Bunnings this cost a grand total of $12.83.

These mods alone will give you what you are looking for.
