Helo, I just came across something which I have wanted to know very long ago...

Why cars like Evo or Wrx... When their boost comes n change gears, we can hear the sound from the blow-off valve... It is because they are turbo-charged engines right??

As far as i know, Volvo S40 also turbo-charged engine isn't it? Why they dont have blow-off valve sounds ar?

shoot me :shocked: if my question is stupid..
cheers

All stock turbo cars from factory do not have BOV sound... just that owners mod them.

My VR4 halfcut with stock BOV produce almost no sound (because it is plumb back to intake).

In reality, those pesky BOV sound are very annoying...

Dear All sifus,

My car wira sedan, already install engine strut bar, lower 4 point, rear 3 point and hotbits silver series suspension (hi/lo adj only).
I want to install ultra racing rear anti roll bar, they have 16mm spec and 19mm spec... browse through website and 16mm is the recommended one, can any user of these items share their experience?

Also, a non dealer workshop quoted me rm340 for 16mm and rm440 for 19mm, reasonable?
