Re: Why are some turbo's louder than others? (not talking about BOV)
Stock plastic turbo inlets have baffles and what not that quiets it down a lot. My T3 with an open pipe is wicked loud. I also have an open 2.5 inch exhaust.

I have plastic intake arm and one of those cheap ebay HKS style filter with 2.5" exhaust and no cat. Sucker spools like a one of those damn semi trucks... maybe not that loud but you can hear me quite a distance away.

I can't figure out what would be making it so quiet ??? |
Re: Why are some turbo's louder than others? (not talking about BOV)
it has to do with the turbo size and exhaust setup. a smallet turbo likea vj-11 will make more sound sooner than a t3.. simply because its spinning faster.. most turbos operate in acess of 150,000 rpm.
