Hi Guys,

I am unsure if im doing damage or its the way it was meant to sound,

I installed a new inter-cooler a new cold air intake and an earls oil feed line ,

after a full eight hour shift on the car I decided to take it for a test run,

negative terminal had been off for an hour or so, reconnected negative idled for ten min, checked all work carried out to make sure nothing was missed got into the car left the drive and bam more turbo noise then ive ever her in 5 yrs of having the car, I cant take a pic of the bay because its to dark to get a good shot but I have edited an image from the net to show how my BOV differs from standard,

Also I will upload a vid if I can,,, or wav

I look forward to any knowledgeable opinion,

Most people head to Sydney mate

The cooler and turbo side the factory ecu "can" adjust to it.

But to be safe

Get it dyno tuned

Ebay emailed tunes are just terrible

Don't even consider it if you enjoy having a working engine

Yea I know to stay away from generic tunes,

I thought just by resetting the ecu it would adjust to the extra airflow,

What is a dyno tune to the pocket,

Also What do you think of the BOV, good or bad for the car?, I was going to go back to standard but those crossovers are hard to come by,
