Re: blow off valve

No.

The turbo is what produces that whine - the very high RPM of the turbine/compressor is specifically what produces the whine. Remember that those things can top 90,000 RPM.

Why would you want that sound without the power that goes with it? That's a lot like some of the ricers that you see that have air-powered shifters - cars that my Caprice will blow out of the water, yet they still have those air shifters - they sound COOL! not
