Hi the former owner had a Porsche BOV on my SP and you can hear it venting and fluttering when backing off. It is a no venting to atmosphere valve. It did this from day one. I did the T piece mod and it still vents and flutters. So I was thinking is this normal on the SP. so I installed the factory BOV which I had and you can still hear it venting and fluttering when backing off, but isn't as loud. Can an SP owner advise if it is standard for the factory blow off valve to have noise.

Hahahha mate the mx is better than the STI lol. My wife uses our STI I hardly drive it. Our last club run in my mx I was drifting around corners my wife was screaming. I told her relax it's just a little hairdressers car lol. She hasn't been in it now I have done the t mod lol.
