the standard recirculating air bypass valve (aka "dump valve") makes it "chuff".

I have a uk turbo 2000, with a fully scoobysport system.
How can I get lots of turbo flutter, I don't want a big huge Essex boy woooosh, but more of a flutter, the louder the better.

Scooobysport said this is to do with a ram air filter is this true?
I heard that ram air filters, play up in traffic, due to the heat under the bonnet.

It is not a racing car, so max power is not required, just max noise, so I can be a max power boy racer.

 

Sorry that should be TURBO flutter

 

An induction kit such as K&N will give you all the turbo warble, flutter and woosh you would ever want ! The MAF should compensate for underbonnet temp in traffic no problem.

 

Cool, what sort should I get as there are so many out there.
I am after max fluttering noise.

 

I have a k&n on my uk99 and its more of a chufffffffff at gear change

Id say not that loud, but loud enought to here and grin at every time you change.



1st chuffffff

2nd chufffffffff
3rd chuffffffffff
catflap grin

 

I don't understand, I thought it was a whistle that came form the Turbo, how can sucking air in when the throttle is closed, create this.

 

I am trying not to have a woooosh.

but it is more a

duuu duaua

This is one of the reasons I got the car, it sounds so nice.
