HedgehogSandwich adi Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Hi all, How loud should the air suction noise be with an induction kit fitted? I have a foam pod filter on, and the noise under acceleration or boost is actually louder than, or at least equally as loud as the engine. Is this normal? i have had suspicions since i bought the car that i may have a boost leak somewhere. TIA adi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 It's pretty loud. If you had a boost leak, you would know about it The slightest of holes causes huge drops in boost pressure. I consider the swoosh of air to be part of the engine noise. If you want the engine bit louder, get a decat special to go! -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HedgehogSandwich adi Posted April 12, 2002 Author Share Posted April 12, 2002 Ah right Cheers Ian, I've already gone down the decat road ! The turbos were rebuilt a year or so ago and i just wondered if they put it all back rogether right, which added to my suspicion.
