Which way have you fit it? Same way as standard or the other way round? When i fit mine the same way as standard it didn't work at all, all I could hear was turbo chatter!

So fitted it the other way round, with the trumpet facing the bulk head and it seems much better.

However I am not sure exactly how it should be fitted buy ill get a pic up later for you to see!
Hope this helps

Its not too loud, but u should notice it. Turn the top adjuster all the way anti-clockwise and try it.

Mine sounds loudest if i floor it and let of at about 3500 rpm rather than when i take it to the red line..

When I plumb my boost gauge into the vac hose my split R stop working...i.e No noise. But when i bypass the gauge and connect it straight to the Split R it works fine?

Why and how can I get them working at the same time??
