    Im in love with the sound of the Blow Off Valve that is fitted on the Infini EP82 Starlet (owned by Shinichi Miyata) that features in this battle... (its black and has a nice big front mount on it)
    Ive never heard anything like it before and find it highly arousing...
    If anone knows of the one I am speaking of and you know which BOV it is most likely using then let me know please... I gota get the same fo my turbs conversion... anything else just wont cut it now...

    what is it.................????



    cheers

    Just so that you know, it is in most cases that the blow off valve does not make the fancy sound you are hearing, there are two sounds a blow off valve can make: PPPSHSHSHHHHH and the other one is the HKS SSQ which has a high pitched squeel. If the car is making a fluttering sounds this is a totally different kettle of fish and has nothing to do with the blow off valve.

    yeh I know there is a few different variations in sound just by adjusting spring pressure ect... but this is so unique that Im sure the BOV plays a major part in the way it sounds....
    its like a quick whistle, instant and dosnt flutter unless released slowly... but it still keeps the high pitch whistle sound..
    I wish I could describe it better or add a sound clip....
    but anyone who has seen this BMI episode should know exaxlty what Im talking about....
    just hoping someone has the same BOV or knows someone with one that makes the same sound...
