Anyone know what BOV this SC is running?
I assume this is part BOV part turbo? What is the BOV? I want that sound!
Or is this turbo flutter completely destroying the turbo because of a bad BOV?

Just remove your BOV and you too can enjoy that sound. For a little while.

If I'm not mistaken as I had this sound on all of my cars its a external waste gate the makes that flutter sound. There may be a bov that sounds like that but I'm my cases it was the waste gate.

It sounds great but yes sounds bad too. External wastegate? Possibly one that is dumping right out to atmosphere?

I agree it sounds great venting to atmosphere but legality wise I do not know how long it could last.
