OK... I was looking at VFAQ.com and came across this MOD...
http://www.tgilmore.com/talon/dumptube.html
I did the mod without hacking original tube... just cause i'm smart.... and I don't know if it's the original tube or the BOV that would give me the really cool "chirp" when I let off gas.... now with mod done I have little more kick and the whoooosh is still there but I cannot get/hear the "chirp" anymore. Could this be because the BOV is a shitty 2gen BOV or does the original dump tube do it or what???????
I checked the BOV and it is clean and unobstructed... and all connections are tight.... I'm anal bout that sort of stuff....
I WANT MY CHIRP BACK!!!!!!!!!!!! :smokin:

It's because the tube makes it sound different, now you have a whoosh.

no, the BOV whooshes, but some ricer BOV's have different sound making techniques.

OK ..cool... I like the opening of the intake without the tube restricting it... little more power...
