People think I'm stupid when I say "did you hear that, did you hear that?"

When the turbo is spooling. Why is the "whoosh" so intoxicating, I don't get it?

I just installed the BMS DCI and all I want to do now is just step into it... Why is the turbo whine so damn interesting?

hipnotic · 01-22-2012, 01:01 PM

it is just music to enthusiast ears. You got a tune with your dci or just an intake?

cobb stage 1 sport right now.

once my front bumper comes back from the body shop, i'll be adding fmic and dp's.. stage 2 baby yeah

maybe that "whoosh" is like flexing muscles in front of the lady's... "shh, listen and let me tell you how bad i am"

hipnotic · 01-22-2012, 01:32 PM

hahha. Yeah i love that sound too.

Justin4586 · 01-22-2012, 07:27 PM

Hehe my neighbor has the Vishnu catless dp and exhaust on his e93 and I jizz every time I hear it lol. The spool and the bov sounds so orgasmic.

J3FF3RSON · 01-22-2012, 07:58 PM

This is the first turbo vehicle I have owned, and I'm addicted to the sound of it.

Wait till you get DPs and exhaust, turbos will be so loud you can hear them over music.

AndyDaBoss · 01-23-2012, 11:09 PM

better than playing my radio !

Spitfirocks · 01-24-2012, 12:25 AM

That sound is music to my ears

xe90x · 01-24-2012, 12:28 AM

After my car warms up in the morning I turn down the music and just listen to my turbo the whole way to school lol

idrift4wd · 01-24-2012, 01:10 AM

take off your engine cowl if you really wanna hear turbo spool. (dry days only as they are used to redirect rain into the cars gutters)

gizmo335i · 01-24-2012, 02:11 AM

Can't wait to get dp's

i had mine off for a couple days when i was messing around with my jb4/meth kit. my friends kept asking if i had done something to the car to make it sound like that. sounds great without the cowl on

This is my first turbo/FI vehicle as well. I'm addicted to the powerband. The sound of my AA exhaust on my M3 is more appealing (probably due to the fact I've had it forever).

Longboarder · 01-24-2012, 01:54 PM

They probably do think something is wrong with you. Not many people other that us actually like the sound. In fact I have a couple younger male employees that have 335's and they have heard my car as I drive in our parking structure with the turbo's hissing so loud it's almost frightening...and they don't like the sound.

Taipei-TT · 01-24-2012, 06:58 PM

I had a Forge BOV on my 2.0T 2008 Audi TT. I love cars, but even for me, the "phssssst" of air that came out each time the car shifted got old real quick! I like it when I was driving hard, but ordinary driving, it got annoying. Went back to the OEM valve within a few weeks. Now I'm in the NA world for a while again.....so I'll have to wait till next time around.

Eric335 · 01-26-2012, 09:19 PM

im always listening for wastegate rattle lol (heard it once, and only once) so now im always paranoid!!!!

mattyjman · 02-07-2012, 10:29 PM

well, i got the AR dp's installed and now running stage 2 + cobb... the wastegate rattle is obscene. It didn't do it with stage 1 so i'm wondering what the deal is.

the car is stupid fast, but the rattle is annoying as hell. time to look into solving that problem, have no idea where to start
