BenDoCo I'm getten too old for this s**t Bronze Donating Members 4,509 Member For: 11y 9m 13d Gender: Male Location: A big bridge over a river in South Australia Posted 09/06/15 12:50 PM Share Posted 09/06/15 12:50 PM I've got the x-over and standard air box with the bottom front cut out and it has a little bit - and I mean a little bit - more spool noise than the standard fg turbo but Bizkets on the other hand with his turbo side setup (which sounds awesome btw) has quite a bit more spool noise than I do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MA91CK billet turbos and weathered engines dont mix Donating Members 1,346 Member For: 12y 7m 29d Gender: Male Location: Wollongong Posted 09/06/15 12:54 PM Share Posted 09/06/15 12:54 PM I don't know how anyone doesn't like it. I wish I could get the HKS t51r spool out of a 3576r with a 4" turbo side, would probably commence a sexual relationship with my car haha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like it to shut up and behave like a normal vehicle until I poke it. And like my women, when I poke it, I want to hear noise Edited 09/06/15 12:58 PM by FiftyOne 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will sacrifice response which is also outright power but that's life of you want it as quiet as possible and do not stick a pod filter on as this is just a "direct line of sight" to allow the noise both in and out!

Bomber Carnage on the Garage Floor Donating Members 3,994 Member For: 14y 8m 9d Gender: Male Location: Gold Coast Posted 10/06/15 07:30 AM Share Posted 10/06/15 07:30 AM Mine spools at idle on cold start program with the turbo side. I mean, really noticeable. If you don't like spooly goodness don't buy one or at a minimum, don't go turbo side. If you want to turn heads though - you'll love it Going under a decent bridge or tunnel, it sounds absolutely awesome together with my 2.5" twin S/S crackling away at WOT. I think for spool noise out of a low mount - nothing comes close. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PTR_NITRO_FG Donating Members 3,214 Member For: 11y 7m 25d Gender: Male Location: NOR Perth Posted 10/06/15 08:33 AM Share Posted 10/06/15 08:33 AM ummm....why does your turbo spool at idle? Mine starts up cold around 1100rpm or so...then drops to 500rpm. Fuel consumption must be fu*ked if everytime you drive you're hitting boost? lolDoes early kick in turbo automatically meaning tryefryer? Or can that be sorted in the tune I.e. progressive tune?

My tuner asked if I wanted the small tune to be a tyrefryer with everything to be full on as soon as possible but I can't afford the tyres all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
