A cat sneezing, i mean, i want a whooooooooosh,but what ive got is more like a tweeeeeeeeedle noise, i took a colleague out in it at lunch, he said, u gottaget a dump valve on it, i said i have, booted it a bit upto about 0.5 boost and he went, hmm, not very loud/deep is it, i agree, some scoobs go by me and whooosh it goes, mine sounds like my cat sneezing, i thought HKS SS were the dogs danglies for the whooosh ?

any thoughts, not there crap for chavs blah yadda yadda

The HKS doesn't make a "WOOOSH" but a higher pitch squeak so it sound like there is nothing wrong with the d/v itself.

IMO you would of been better of leaving the std d/v and spending your money else were but hey it's your car/money..

.5 bar aint enough mine's loud venting 1.4 bar The HKS is not a whoosh its more of a chirp get a bailey or similar if you want the whoosh

take 4 of the allen screws out the front, remove the cover then get rid of the 3 spoked insert. Then it will sound whooshy, but quieter. like a usual one.

My new forge dv sounds like the air brake off a truck!?
Ordered a set of stiffer springs for it so rather than tsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssh it'll be more tssssh. Plus at lower boost levels it won't even open so I'll get the fluttter sound

Blitz BOV here, sounds awesome! Wastegate chatter is immense too !

I think mine sounds fine, but it has got 1.6bar helping it along. Get a remap & it should help give the valve more pressure to make the noise out off.... wont cost much more than a ssqv either
