I personally like the sound of an open dump. Kind of has a growl to it, and wakes the other drivers up a little. IMO it's not really that loud either, my b16a kicking onto hi-cam sounded louder than when I ran an open dump.

open dump is insanly loud, but its soo much fun,

whenever people are walking on the side of the road, i keep the car in boost but feather the gas just enough so that the wastegate doesnt open, and when i get right beside them slam the gas, it sound like a fucken explosion. scares the ---- out of anyone walking beside the car.
