Default all new stuff

alight lads just got my 1st scoobs,its a wrx awd.it has some mods exhaust,dump valve and induction kit.thing is the induction kit sounds crap,i had one a few years back on a saxo vtr and it had a real nice rumble also is the induction the reason behind "wastegate chatter"heard so much about this but no one has had a real answer for it,
is there such a thing some say there is others say its something else?!?!
also heard its a noise from the turbo and it aint good for the turbo?!?!
some people say its a good noise but iam not so impressed,
also dump valve is on the quiet side and only dumps on high revs around 5000rpm is this the norm any recommendations on a newer louder one
exhaust on the other hand is a beast think its a blitz system.

all in all been basically been blown away by the car and look forward to many happy miles in my new car.any other tips and advice would be great since iam a virgin!!!

i'll post some pics when i next get a chance

many thanks guys

a dump valve usually makes a noise usually around 3000rpm when boost is reached well it did on mine till i put the oe recirv valve back on couldnt stand the noise anymore maybe the valve is an adjustable one where you can adjust how much air is dumped to the atmosphere and get rid of the induction kit sucks in warm air not good for cooling purposes and can in some cases knacker the maf sensor.
