bad inferno Member 130 Member For: 19y 4m 18d Posted 17/09/16 12:13 AM Share Posted 17/09/16 12:13 AM OK, yes I maybe getting old however want the power benefits of a process west race airbox however concerned about the induction noise. I have the XR8 air box on there now and was just about to purchase the turbo side kit and then stopped and reconsidering the KPM streetfighter air box my exhaust is quite loud so Im not looking for total silence and a turbo whine is OK on acceleration, its a manual gearbox and think I would get sick of the tut tut or woosh sound longer term.

However the reason it's like this is because car does not have a blow off valve. I would think if you ran a plumbed back BOV you would be satisfied. Definitely do the intercooler! more consistent power will be had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bad inferno Member 130 Member For: 19y 4m 18d Posted 17/09/16 02:17 AM Author Share Posted 17/09/16 02:17 AM Do you think lining the air box with Dynamat would help. I could imaging the thin steel walls of the airbox would resonate and amplify the noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same thoughts as you before I bought 1, hated mine at first crazy loud, I bought some acoustic foam and lined all the inner panels made huge difference now very happy with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intake spool noise and 'tututututu' are the best haha. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
