Are there no depths too low?

Ugh...

When the seller says "WHO LEAVE NGATIVE BEFORE CONTACT ME WILL GET THE SAME"; apart from the crap English, surely this just makes the feedback system pointless. He's basically saying tit-for-tat retaliation will occur. Twat.





Your sort make me sick

"you will not be able to tell the difference..."

really? we wont notice the absence of any boost, or the unavoidable loss of power due to a blocked exhaust?

All the cars I have had with turbo's; petrol or diesel; the turbo has whistled!

Surely the extremely high rpm turbo's spin to, they have to make a sound, don't they?

They usually whistle more as they get more worn!

What a totally sh1t device, as Joelp says, nice loss of power due to the crappy bung in the exhaust, don't think the SVA tailpipe emmission probe will like it very much. What are the radii on the edges like!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can I stick my finger in it to see if it stops spinning!!

Well,

i think they should do a double pack with a stick on supercharger. then you could have a fake superturbocharger powered shopping trolley.

Dad has an Impreza WRX bug-eye (note: not boy racer STI version), and that only starts to whistle over 5000rpm, turbo starts at 3000 roughly. Although mums V70 D5 whistles all the time, but that could just be the CVT autobox.

My old Volks Passat 1.9TDI whistled but you could only hear it with the window open. Wouldn't have said it was a desirable sound though ?
