Make Blowoff valve louder?

Featured Replies

I know this is very boy racer-ish of me but im wondering if i could make the blow off valve louder? maybe by fitting a free-er flowing air filter?



What engine is it?

The only way to increase the noise is to increase the pressure by creating more boost; recapping might help or a bigger turbo, although these days everything is designed to be more efficient with variable vain turbos there designed to reduce any excess boost which is the beginning of extinction for the blow off valve,

You could fit a Saber electronic dump valve, 

The 1.0 EB uses a recirc valve as standard so not much noise.  You could fit an atmospheric valve instead, I'm sure Forge sell generic ones that fit the 1.0EB.

Lots of people fit the Turbosmart recirc valve to the 1.0EB but as it's still recirc, you don't much more noise from that.

Yeah, they don't sell a specific one but I think one of the generic ones fits.  Didn't realise yours was Mk8 though, not sure if they're different to Mk7. :unsure:
