I'd like my turbo to be louder. I know a lot of diesels and other turbo cara come with a silencer ring stock. I'm assuming ours have them too. Has anyone taken their's out and how easy is it/loud/anoying is the turbo noise after? Thanks!

 

What.

 

they dont.

 

K&N SRI+Forge Vta. People will know you have a turbo you won't even need to rev high it blows off loud.

 

the silencer on these cars are the intake. get a k&n intake and ull hear ur turbo nice and loud

 

Is the K&N Typhoon intake worth the ~$279?

 

Yes

 

Will I hear it with the zzp tube + drop in k&n?

 

The K&N is hands down the BEST sounding intake for these cars, It's loud and people on the sidewalk do look when you let off the gas

 

video doesn't do it justice

 

I love my K&N and forge bpv....

 

not really and that intake tube isnt as good as a nice hard pipe

 

Well, I ordered the K&N intake. Hope it's worth it!

 

Oh ull like it. Especially on hot humid days when the turbo screams so load it's almost all u hear

 

It's very worth it.

The intake tube from ZZP is reinforced and is very close to a hard pipe. The difference is the restriction in the airbox compared to open K&N Filter

 

no it doesn't... but gotta try lol

me too

Oh.. you will you wont be able to wipe the grin off your face that first drive but now you get to play the waiting game haha! but it'll all be worth it

 

When installing the forged bpv and k&n do you need to do tune?

 

Kn may screw up fuel trims a bit. Also u wont feel hp gains without a tune.

 

What do you mean by it may screw up the fuel trims? What does that do? I've put K&N intakes on other cars and never had a problem. I understand that I won't feel any real gains from the intake alone without a new tune (I already have the Trifecta budget tune), that's not really a big deal to me at this point in time.

 

Have you ever monitored fuel trims on your other cars after an intake install? Kn doesn't mess with them too much but some have ended up with CEL's from being too lean or rich.

 

its is ...very worth it

 

No, I haven't. I've also never gotten a CEL from any of the previous cars I've had K&N intakes or drop in filters on. Would this be a reliability/performance issue? I don't want to have to pay for another tune since I got the budget tune lol. I just wanted the turbo to be louder!

 

You should be fine

 

Dont worry about it, the K&N is the best one for these cars and really doesn't screw with anything... I didn't get a tune after either (though planning to soon) and I didn't get a CEL or anything of the sort and it runs just as great as it did before, just a helluvalot louder

 

I'm in Lincoln also, I wouldn't mind hearing it with an intake on it since I'm considering going with the k&n eventually. We could even get a couple runs in . I'm hp tuned for e47.
