ITG Noise - Anyone tried this?
« on: September 28, 2012, 06:10:52 pm »
Hi all,

Found this accidentally the other day and was wondering if anyone had tried this. When building boost in gear(using a gear higher than you need to load the engine) as you take it out of gear, and before you engage the next gear you quickly tap the accelerator pedal. It must cause the diverter valve to close as you get VERY loud reversion noise  :grin:

Please don't turn this into a debate as whether reversion is good or bad for your engine/turbo... I'm pretty sure that even though many people believe it to be bad, it's never been proven  :happy2:

No, not the normal flutter that changes depending on boost etc. You physically have to tap the accelerator pedal whilst you have the clutch depressed when changing gear

I know what you mean  :wink: - it is an awesome noise and was rather addictive on the K03  :evilgrin:

Unsure if it does it with the K04 - (goes out to test....)
