Tere Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 Just a little video of my 350 running around the block in my neighborhood. If you lived in my neighborhood, this is what you would hear about every day. Supercharged 350Z at 16psi, headers, testpipes and dual exhaust -- Tial BOV. Of course I never get above 3rd, but it will give you a little hint of what she sounds like at WOT on the open highway. Sorry about the wind noise -- the windows were open for better sound sensation. "I feel the need for speed!" -- in deference to Zedrush who thinks I'm Tom Cruise. So here's my little land jet (I love jet noise!)... 3.15MB video to download... http://tere.net/t-z/tere350zsc-1.mpg Quote
rickya Posted August 14, 2007 Posted August 14, 2007 Wow, sounds like a jet plane crossed with a steam engine B) Quote
martinmac Posted August 14, 2007 Posted August 14, 2007 Guess the neighbours know when you are in then. Awesome Quote
Tere Posted August 14, 2007 Author Posted August 14, 2007 Thanks y'all. She definitely turns heads as folks try to figure out what in the heck is coming down the road. It was a hoot yesterday when I pulled up next to another 350 -- we both had our windows open despite the 98 degree heat. She definitely turned the other driver's head, and I gave him a thumbs up and a grin, and then off with a hearty hi-ho Silver (oh, I forgot, my Z isn't silver and you'd have to remember the Lone Ranger). You can play tunes with the BOV. Quote
Andy Posted August 14, 2007 Posted August 14, 2007 Awesome setup you have there!! Sure is a credit to you!! Quote
sl114 Posted August 14, 2007 Posted August 14, 2007 now thats awesome. I love the sound. Only one problem - your steering wheel is on the wrong side and you are driving onthe wrong side of the road! Quote
Tere Posted August 14, 2007 Author Posted August 14, 2007 Hehehehe... I've done my share of round-abouts and actually went around them the correct way! At least at the tail end of the video I switched to the left side of the road! I found it wasn't too difficult to adapt to a right-hand drive. I miss the pubs -- they'd see you walking across the parking lot and by the time you got in the door your pint was waiting for you on the bar. Nothing like it in the States. Quote
Tere Posted August 15, 2007 Author Posted August 15, 2007 Correct. It dumps or blows off excess pressure to atmosphere. It opens and closes at around 11 psi of vaccuum (basically whenever you back off the throttle). The more pressure being blown off, the louder it gets. I use Tial BOVs on my Zs. Quote
