I always thought to get that swoosh or pssssshhhttt sound you need a vent to atmosphere BOV. Everyone seems to have different ideas about the way to upgrade my stock one.

 

Dude, seriously? We are all glad to have another member around here but you aren't going to score many points with the regulars if the only thing you are after is the BOV sound. Take the previous advice and keep the stock IX diverter valve. Check our Buschur Racing for their staged packages, search for your answers on this forum, and enjoy a great ride.

Welcome and good luck.

 

Yea, diverter valve is the way to go. With the diverter valve, you hold boost but with a BOV, you release all that boost into the atmosphere. The "Swoosh" is all show, no fun in my opinion.

 

I have the Injen intake & intercooler pipe kit on my car & it makes the diverter valve sound good. Its not loud like a vent to atmosphere BOV, but it sounds good & you don't get any drivabilty issues with it. Don't replace the stock diverter valve. The IX diverter valve is one of the best out there.

 

hey guys whats up my name is danny and i just totalled my brand new gti... so i got a big check and audi wants me in a a4 quattro but im thinking less refined and more evo because i bet i wont lose grip and go spinning into a tree.

should i get an evo9 se .. is that the best of the evo's?
from what ive read online the evo 9th generation was the fastest and better then the X.

Help me please evo world.. if not i will be dubbed for life i feel like

which evo is the best ?????

and is a black evo IX se with 11thousand miles worth 27k?

 

Buschur intake kit with cone filter very loud imho. I actually have it i could video it if that was really needed...



VDUBvsEVO:

The Evo 9 is definitely one of the best I would prefer an Evo 6 or 5 myself but they can't be sold easily to the states.

 

if you want to hear your stock diverter valve...just get a MAF adapter and open element cone filter...

for the exhaust...id go with megan racing if i were you...they offer a full 3" system in either polished or black for stealth...

hope this helps...

and remember this: search is your bestfriend.

 

To me, I love that sound... it gets me going... just like a big burly cam in a V8. Excuse me if I want my car to make that pshhhht sound. Plenty of other people out there have cars that make it. To everyone else, I appreciate the advice!

 

So the IX is the fastest bang for the buck in the generations here in the US for sale?
Plus if I drop 1200 on the best hp parts to get me to do high 10's or low elevens...then which gen and model ?

 

the reason i say that is because there was a borla evo :-P that was hitting low eleven on stock turbo but all the pipe work was done is what they said.

 

VDUB your not even posting in the right place. Please post in the correct section.

As far as what evos are worth, check kellybluebook.com and also look on ebay and see what they are going for.

A black ix se is one of the rarest evos you can get. That is a good price for it.

Again, do some of your own research and please post in the right place next time.

 

thats not nice dont be mean :-P i have been doing my research and all i have been doing since i totalled my car is looking for a car online... ive looked at over 1500 cars in the last 4 days easily while resting 4 fractures hopped up on hydrocodone neproxen and valium... but thanks for pointing me in the right direction spyder. :-)
