the fake one looks really 'cool'.
If you want loud psst sound, you can opt for a bov with a whistle place on top of the valve. So the actual sound comes from the whistle rather than the engine.
Or you can install the fake bov - turbo noise simulator, can be installed at car workshops. Cost about $300+. You can check this site http://www.sunamiturbo.com/ for more details on fake bov. Strictly for poseurs only.
i'm laughin real hard as i type this... -
Beside imitating psst sound, you can also imitate loud engine rev noise when accelerating.
You probably have heard some cars with very loud engine noise. Some are real turbo engine noise and what about the fakes? Poseurs fix a whistler inside their muffler to generate turbo noise. The loud engine noise come from the whistler inside the muffler and not from the engine.
Check out this site http://www.turbowhistler.com/ for details on turbo whistler.
Together with the psst sound simulator as mentioned earlier, you can get an 'embrassing' turbo car.
Another product strictly for poseurs only. -
Turbo charging is fun but costly. Many aftermarket turbo installers forget one important part. Your engine block, pistons etc are manufactured to withstand certain pressures. Turbo charging increases the pressures to these parts and too much pressure will actually "blow up" your engine.
To Turbo Charge your auto car, you need to strengthen the engine, reprogramme the ECU and better still change your gears. All the works will cost you $10k plus, but it will be a safer option than just slotting in the turbo.
Supercharging on the other hand can achieve a better low-end result which in Singapore ( I fee) is more impt. Supercharging is safer and less hassle. After market kits are usually bolted on and can be removed for inspections within hours.
Just my 2 cents worth. By the way, I really admire cars which are damn quiet and still let you smell smoke. Much better than those that make loads of noise but are left behind when the lights turn green. -
