Having a woooosh sound dump valve!!

[acidstrato]

seems pretty accurate to me bud

iv seen quite a few run 180s-190 with the stock intercooler, although hitting 233lb ft is pretty impressive

i know the car feels like its worth alot more, its just the car overheating in the dyno room, no big deal really

 

[brad_cupra05]

oh rite ok mate, as long as im happy with the performance on the road i suppose figures dont really matter that much

 

[acidstrato]

thats the attitude! RR results mean diddly!

 

[BEOWULF]

i ran it at marlin engineering on the rolling road day im going to try running it again i think i thought it would at least push 190 with my spec

mine hit 193 bhp with roughly the same spec u have
the only thing different is i have a raid hp max-flow filter i get like a darth Vader noise on mine but only does it in low reves if u give it a bit of beans it very quiet

 

[brad_cupra05]

is that an enclosed filter? my jabba one sounds quite nice, a nice dump even at the top of the rev range

 

[Simon L]

Just buy a open filter, the sound is quite audible. (I have one for sale, he he)

 

[the stig]

i run a jabbasport induction kit and a forge 007 and that has quite a loud sort of whoosh definatly noticable

are the jabba ones you talkin about the open fiter with the heat sheild wall round it?? are they better than dynatwist??

 

[acidstrato]

define better?
better performance gains? unlikely any better or worse
better sound? probably

 

[the stig]

i know they would probably sound better as they are open but performance wise do you think they are better or worse

 

[acidstrato]

neither, i suspect you wouldnt notice any difference

 

[the stig]

ok cheers. do you or anyone know if jabba sell the heat shield on there own as the 230 price tag seems quite steap???

 

[BEOWULF]

this is a pic of my air filter

when i went on the rolling road my maf was knacked
like i say i got 193.45bhp and 240.59 max torque
which i thought was quite good

i dont think they do, otherwise everyone would just buy that and source an open filter as thats essentially all you get lol im happy with mine though

 

[PhilW]

230 quid for a 40 quid filter and some alu bent sheet? Are they serious?


The filter they use is from Jetex, and i just bought one.

yea it is alot for what you get but its the only open filter i found with half decent heat shield, you could always make the heat shield yourself but if you havent got the time or resources like me then you cant lol

would you say it was worth 230 quid tho. whats the noise like???

 

[brad_cupra05]

ermm i dont know really i like it it has a nice growl and the dump is definatly noticable from outside and in

 

[acidstrato]

would you say it was worth 230 quid tho. whats the noise like???

STOP!
BREATH!
AND REPEAT!

no air filter is worth £230 imo, not even if it had flashing neons!
the filter itself is only worth about 50quid

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Yeah totally scam. Bit of sheet metal bent to shape. Job done for about £60 inc. filter..
