Hiya,

Can someone tell me how they got that noise out of the supra in the 1st film...e.g. at the end of the film he lines up with the black dodge charger and its obviously a dump valve, but it makes a kind of shivery (dont knw how else to explain it!) noise. Is this a special valve or turbo even....anyone got any ideas or where to buy?

Also where are the scoobies in those films aye!!

Cheers - Dan.

 

Could be the NOS valve dumping.

2F2F has the Syline doing the same. Looks like fire extinguishers going off under front arches!!

 

ah right would explain it then...lol yeah they do look pretty cool!

Cheers - Dan.

 

Induction kit with FMIC coupled with Re-Circ D/V gives exactly the same noise - well it does on mine anyway

 

ah nice one mate....this could be a stupid Q but what is a FMIC?

Dan.

 

Front Mounted Intercooler

 

Ahhh right....soz i dont know much about all this....the intercooler can actually change the sound of the engine as well as cool the turbo better as well then?

Dan.

 

Is it not the actuator ????

my escort used to make similar noises with a -34

 

Spoke to xtremescoobies and they think its Wastegate Chatter...doesnt mean an awful lot to me, but i want the sounds!

 

Why's this in gallery? I was expecting all manner of ridiculous, graphic toting motors.

 

thats true mate my fault, just i had done a request post before and had automatically wacked this one in here....if the moderator can move it into a more appropriate section then please do so.

Dan.

 

its a external wastegate and i have one

 

Get with it! Scoobs are soooo last century

 

Apparently Paul Walker has recently bought a WRX to go with his Skyline and his other 83 cars, so we may see one in the next film now he knows how sweet they can sound.

Icy.

 

i hope so mate... i hope so!

 

Moses....

mate where do you get this external wastegate from & how much are they?

Dan.

 

My guess at tghe noise in F&F would be the induction kit. You can get the same noise with a induction kit or air filter. A de-catted downpipe will make it even louder. Used to get it all the time in my Scoob when I had the K&N induction filter and de-cat on it.

You need to retain the standard re-circulating dump valve as the sound of a venting DV will usually drown out the noise of the indcution kit. Press the gas then lift off and you'll get a quite loud fluttering noise from the induction kit as it sucks in then releases the air I guess.

Could have been an external waste gate noise but they usually tend to sound a bit higher, more chirpy so my bet would be on induction kit as it sounds almost exactly like the sound I used to get on my Scoob

 

cheers guv...i'll see what i can do

Dan.

 

The noise is wastegate chatter, sound of air coming back through the induction pipes & hitting the impellor blades.
If you have an external wastegate, your normally running a big turbo, and especially if the ext. wastegate vents to atmosphere your gonna get A LOT of that noise.
How much are they someone asked?? spend about 9k on your engine, 2k on a turbo and youll probably have one then!
If anyoen says theyve got an external wastegate on their car, their either lying, or if their not lying, be afraid!!

 

:-o

Is there not a way to do it cheaper?

 

I have a external tailgate on mine

 

lol!
