    Default That Gen 1 Induction Noise - Want My Gen 2 To Sound The Same, But How ???

    Howdy,

    Before I bought my BL MPS 3, I test drove a BK MPS3.

    The BL was the better car overall, but the BK had such an excellent induction and exhaust noise. Like a "whooooosh".

    While the BL does sound good, I would love for it to sound like the BK. Anyone know if this is achievable ?

    Thanks.

    I get a very nice induction noise with my 2XS SRI, even with the airbox

    SRI and a TIP would make that noise and even a big of turbo spool.

    If you don't want to start modding, you can always use a high flow panel filter (K&N or similar) and cut a big hole on the cold intake side of your airbox...

    I get that with an SRI alone

    A TIP would just make it louder again

    You sure the BK you tested didn't have a SRI or CAI fitted?... otherwise i don't think there should me any difference from the BK and BL.

    Only thing i can think of is the BL does shield a lot of the outside noises.

    Silly question time; what's an SRI and a TIP ?

    Also, the BK I drove appeared to be stock - just sounded a hell of a lot sweeter !

    So basically, we are saying that an SRI and a TIP will improve the aural experience - I'm assuming some extra killer-wattage as well ???

    SRI : Short ram intake
    TIP: Turbo inlet pipe

    Those 2 go together with the TIP conectin with the turbo.
