Aby - that's the first thing I noticed after installing my Black. It sounds like my Dad's dump truck I remember reading Lucas' post when the Black first came out and he also mentions how loud the turbo is - https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...p-black-2.html

I have heard both. The green is a cool soft whistle. The black whistle is loud and annoying.

My BBK Lite has a stock IX comp cover and it whistles insanely loudly when rolling into boost, everyone who's ever ridden in my car comments on it.

I'm not sure if the black has that option. I also don't think they can machine the stock cover out enough to fit the wheel in it. I could be wrong though.

Do you have a anti surge inlet? I absolutely love the sound of it. I think the loudest turbo with that very nice whistle to it has to be a gt3076r with the 4" anti surge housing. It's much louder then green, blacks and reds.

the black has to have the antisurge housing. the red and greens you can opt out of them if you dont mind surge and all. LOL personally i think the whistle is pretty cool and on top of that its the sound of power lol
