The DV+ just makes a little mouse squeak when you lift off on part throttle, otherwise it's silent!  It's very subtle though and you can't hear it with the windows up.

A for the tshhhhh blow off noises......there are tshhhhhh noises, and there are tshhhhhh noises!  A big turbo with a big TIAL 50mm bov makes a cool noise, but a little turbo with little bov, not so cool!

Thinking of getting one of these but can anyone tell me if it makes a blow off sound?

I bought a forge blow off adaptor and I hate it :surprised:

I have obviously totally outgrown the pathetic pfft-pfft sound it makes :laugh:

I thought I would like the sound. I was wrong :rolleye:

Anyways.... I've been thinking of getting one of these but I've been worried that it will make the same pathetic racket as the forge spacer :ashamed: :ashamed:

Can anyone dispel my concerns :smiley:

Hey I'm in the same situation. Sick of the forge spacer noises.



Dude get a DV+ you won't regret it :happy2:
The forge spacer sounds so crap. In all honesty it sounds much more like a bus releasing pressure from it's brake air lines than it does a proper big turbo dumping excess globs of turbo spool juice :rolleye:

As others have said the DV+ is not night and day (unless of course your diaphragm is split) but the boost response and transition is so pin sharp compared to an OEM diverter that the  more time I spend with it the more i love it :love:

You literally took the word rights out of my mouth buddy.....
