Improving/increasing Turbo sound

[bpd1151]

Hhmmmm....

Interesting to know/learn about there 4DR.

1st, I didn't know really.

2nd, I was under the impression it was placed (within each piece of plumbing that feeds each turbo) based upon the picture of where they were installed.

Finally, 3rd, it still reminds me of those stupid Tornado product thingy's from back in the early 90's. Ha!

I'm just surprising myself that I still remembered those darn contraptions.

I don't know...when I look at them, all I can think is "Snake Oil"

With the K&N intake I can hear the turbos and the blow offs quite well. With the windows down its quite loud. I wonder how it sounds with the Hennessy kit?

If you didn't read the link to the f150 forum you really should, some of the explinations for what these are, are just hilarious.  It's long but worth it if you need a few laughs.

Well, since they aren't on the sport then I guess I'll just move on, but maybe a f-150 ecobooster will find this useful later!

I should create an account (over there) and as my 1st post, go into that thread and just go completely off the wall and say that those are the newest design(s) in contraception devices.

An evil plot conjured up by a female engineer who thought to install those as a psuedo type of intra-uterine device so when a male attempts to umm.... errrr..... "insert" that they end up getting all..... well.....

Dismembered.

Bwahahahahahaha

Pretty much comparing apples to potatoes here, but I was spoiled by the sounds from my old car!

Quite honestly, I hear a whine. But it don't sound like a turbo to me, sounds like drive train gear whine.

You are right, you do hear a whine.  Which is why I said it's like comparing apples to potatoes.  It's still so quiet in the Ecoboost.

Not drive train gear noise you are hearing though!

I like the whine!

my grand national back in the day sounded like a freaking jet spooling up. loved that sound.

my sho is dead quiet. but I have heard that with a k&n setup, you could hear the turbos well.

I confirm that my K&N intake produces more turbos and blow off valve sounds over stock.

Sounds a lot like my 04 GTP used to...

I had the airaid cai on my car because I liked its design over that of the K&N which didn't seem "cold" at all. I didn't really believe there would be any difference in the sound of the two.  Unhappy with the barely audible sound I decided to try the K&N and it was a HUGE difference.

Like I said, I just have the stock box with the K&N panel.  It does have a better sound than the stock panel but, yeah no real turbo sound.  That's the way I'm gonna stay though.  Cold air from under the front of the hood into a closed box.  These 3.5's generate a lot of heat!  That's why I took off my engine cover for good.  I would love to hear the whine like my T-Bird SC had.  I don't know because I haven't taken it out but that sound pointing fitting doesn't really seem to do too much.

I like the quite of the sho you can talk to the person next to you while mashing the go pedel. my mazda gets annoying after a while, fun but annoying.

That sounded like a supercharger
