is it low end or high end?

sometimes it happens to me too but one day i tightened the bolt on my axleback side with the correct specs with a torque wrench and bam, the problem was gone.

Question, do you hear the turbo spool pretty loudly in the car while driving? Never driven on of these before and just curious. I checked all the connections and no leak I can tell, just seems to be pretty loud spool-up...

Works for me! =) I need a BOV dammit, jus for dekorashun tho. =) Need one you can turn down and up from the cockpit. I can see it getting old when just driving around town, but there are times when it would be nice to hear it. I can sorta just barely hear the stock one so I like spooling and dumping, too quiet tho. But gotta make more power before advertising with a bov...

power and handling.

If I were in your shoes, I don't think I'd give a care less how it looked. If you did, and with the dough you seem to have, why not buy a 911 or supra or have a skyline shipped to you?

I never meant I would want a BOV so others could hear me, I just like the sound I can sorta hear from the stock one. I could care less what others think of my cars looks, Im just doing what I want to do to it and unfortunately need to ask a lot of questions many completely stupid so I just have to deal with whatever answers I might get. I try and do research online or search for answers before bothering all of you, but I cant always find the specific answers you guys can give me.

911? Skyine? I dont have that much cash... Heck I saved a ton going with Dans car so want to add some mods is all...

It's "loud" because the intake silencer is off. But trust me that's not loud.
