If so, what mods do you have? I assume this is a standard UK turbo.

It's hard to tell exactly what that car is - it's certainly not an unmodified UK turbo, though. My guess is at a UK car with a drainpipe exhaust and an induction kit - you can't normally hear the dump valve without one. Could also be an STI IV with that spoiler.

If I'm not very much mistaken, the reg no thats on that car was on the long term test car that autocar had, I could be wrong though1

Carl - I'd hardly call that driving like an ****. I just waited to download it, expecting to see someone doing doughnuts in a petrol station.

He just trundled through, giving it a bit of right sandal, thats all

I think it sounds rather nice IMHO. What is this 'drainpipe exhaust' you are on about?? How would this make the dump valve work at low revs like it was??
