rjspeed, the HKS SSQ is a BOV, thats just the name of it and the sound it makes is almost like a bird chirping or a high pitched sound.
haha thats one reason i got it, but im sure mine works fine.Black Majik MSP said:I'm so tired of people getting BOVs for the sound. I think that's actually the main reason that some people get turbo cars.I would be more concerned with how well it works than if I get some "cool sound".
it is supposed to make a noise, it sounds like a turkey who is also letting out a lot of air at the same timeaiken said:Anyway, I'm not too intelligent when it comes to cars, but I am in the learning process (a very slow one, unfortunately). From some posts I've read, it seems that maybe our cars are supposed to make a noise from the BPV? Am I just horribly mistaken, or is there indeed a noise that it is supposed to make? Thanks in advance for anyone who decides to help me out w/ an answer.![]()

Its caused by the BPV not doing its job well thus causing a compressor surge.
You may hear a very faint whoooshhh instead.
