All,

I am interested in getting 1 of these, but would like know what it sounds like first, any 1st hand experiences or maybe someone has been kind enough to load it up to the web somewhere ?

 

not heard one myself, but heard they are VERY LOUD!

 

Very high pitched 'EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!' with the usual 'psshsh'. Noisy. Have one, or rather had. Apparently, it sounded like a bus. Was ordered to remove it

 

Nom-
Who ordered it to be removed?

 

The girle

 

Thought so.

 

Any chance someone wants to share the experience with me ?

Also any kind people willing to copy the sound to an avi file and dump it on the web somewhere ?

 

Try this link... but this in the valve on a celica.... but you get the idea..

Just fitted one to my Evo yesterday and love it..... Not really noticeable under 'normal' driving, which I prefer, but as soon as you nail the accelerator and let off the gas, a flutter of 'whoooosssshhhhh' is released which, when on full boost is LOUD!!! Excellent.....

hi mate have one fitted to my scooby it sound ace, it don't sound mush like it does on that web site, it a must, it make everybody look around.

 

Guys,

Thanks for the feed back, I have ordered it, should be here next week, keep the responces coming

 

So what are these things like on a motorway treck then ?

 

Can't hear'em. Well, unless you're playing with the gears

 

Whats its like when you let ur foot off the gas, how loud does it dump then ?

 

Depends.
Not very helpful, am I?
If you just gently release your foot, you get a gentle pshhh; if you take your foot off suddenly, you get a loud eeeeee with the psshhhhh and quite possible a pop or two as well! For general motorway stuff, it doesn't make much difference. It's all back road stuff (well, high/abrupt changes in boost leads to louder noises, I suppose!)

 

The noise the dump valve makes is very dependant on the air filter too (if its re-circulating). Standard airbox you dont hear much, with a K&N cone you hear plenty! Take out the blanking plate on the bonnet grill and its even louder!, Not good if it rains though (filter gets a bit wet).

 

any one got any instructions on how to fit this in english please ?

 

I haven't got a translation, but there's no suprises at all - the piccies by themselves are plenty to go on

 

So where is the best place to mount this then, any 1 got any pictures ?

 

Come on guys and gals, dont be shy, please post me some pictures of where you have mounted the dump valve on a my96 ?

 

blitz supersound is the best mate and u can adjust it make it louder or whatever

 

Moses where have u mounted ur blitz mate ?

 

Also what is the bolt on the bottom of the dump valve, only have pictures, cant make sense of the lanuage
