non turbo dump valve :/

[saxoclarke]

earlier on today a suburu when past and had a lovely dump valve hiss and my friends dad then said thats not even a turbo and said you can have real dump valve setups on non turbo cars, which confused me because i thort their sole purpose was to blow out unused turbo air or something like that. is it true u dont need a turbo for a dump valve cus im confused

It'll be an electric one.

There was some Dutch company that made one that run from exhaust gasses but didn't really take off

[rorz_vts]

^^^ there's also one that connects to your throttle adjuster thing that's electric and goes off every time your release the throttle. Most pointless thing ever

[Tannerman]

I really do hope ur not thinking of getting one.it is quite possibly the gayest thing u can do to your car.....

[MiniGibbo]

I've got one on the BMW.

£130 WTF???who would spend that sort of cash on that shite???

[Mezza2k11]

lol just what i was thinking, it would be cheaper to get a megaphone and say, sshhh into it everytime you change gear lmaoo

[MiniGibbo]

I was thinking of buying another so I can pretend I have a twin turbo..

[NismoSteve]

I wouldn't even waste my time to look at one. Real turbo or nothing. There is no point pretending, just to try and impress teenagers.
Even real dump valves sound a bit gay with anything under 1 bar. Personally when I do a low boost conversion I'll be staying sleeper and no point even running a dump valve for 6 psi.

Edit, if anything, the sound of a huge open turbo spooling up is the best noise by far.

It`d be cheaper to stick the turbo sound on a cd then play in a loop,with the window down.

He was bullshitting you, google 'dump valve' and read up what thier purpose is.

[NismoSteve]

Some people have no shame, you can even get a device that sits in your exhaust to sound like a spooling turbo. What's the world coming to.
