The pitch sounds the same, but I am curious how loud it is. I could careless what it sounds like with the hood open. I am curious what it sounds like with the hood closed driving from the inside and outside personally.

for some reason i like the obnoxious whistle sound.

the HKS is loud as crap, if you get on it, it'll make a squeak sound, at low RPM it will just swoosh and sound like a queef

Loudness will depend on how much boost you're running...but trust me, the SP kit and the Ultimate racing kit will sound EXACTLY the same...

Nothing with a drive by or anything. I can give you a sound clip of it on a GT-60 and it sounds a heck of a lot different my friend.

That vid is of the old SSQV, doesn't the new one sound different?

true... the hood really silences the sound.

I was driving our shop car around with one of these kits and with the windows up and stereo playing, you really can't hear it. If you crank the radio down a notch with the windows slightly cracked you can hear it. BMW just made the cabin so perfect it's hard for any road/external noise to make it through.

External fly-by video's coming tomorrow.

Cool, that should be enough for me to make a decision Ed.

Any info on this?

edzilla · 12-11-2007, 01:34 AM

I got 8 kits left, 2 are spoken for. Instructions just got finished up, and I will be getting more clear video clips tomorrow. The video we took the past 2 days are just no good, we are trying a different camera tomorrow.

I think the mic on the previous videos were not as good to capture the sound. Maybe try filming further away from the car so the sound wont' be distorted.

edzilla · 12-11-2007, 07:07 PM

Tried a diff camera today, along with a true hand held recorder. The hand held came out better, I will be uploading it on Youtube for all to see later tonight.

Another kit sold, 7 left until pricing goes back up to regular pricing. Thanks!

The blow off sounds much better under load! My friend has one and it sounds so much better under load than while just reving! There are a few clips on YouTube of different kits using the HKS SSQV. There are plenty of clips from inside the cabin and fly by's! I don't want to post any links cause that would be just wrong since this is SP's post.

Definitely a great piece of equipment and a good price!

BMW_TT · 12-11-2007, 10:41 PM

can't wait for the vids!

edzilla · 12-12-2007, 03:48 AM

I got some decent footage today but Youtube won't let me upload a video file that large, let me figure this out a little more and I'll hopefully have a link soon.

BOOST3D · 12-12-2007, 04:02 AM

this kit is the best, picked mine up today and instaled it. sounds great. great product and good seller

edzilla · 12-14-2007, 06:28 PM

Thanks for the kind words!!

We installed BMC Air Filter in our car, and the BOV sounds even better now!
