Re: loud moan/wineing

If you have your stock blow off valve on, they usually go bad and make a maon/hooting sound. Its your blowoff valve leaking. You definately should get it replaced, your loosing power. Thats just a guess at what your hearing.

mine does the same thing. ('93 VR4) sounds like a wookie. it is the BOV leaking and at 3-4k it Resonates loudly. I am saving for a greddy type S. the issue wont cause damage but you are losing a ton of power.

Yeah, if it sounds like a hooting owl, wookie, goose, whatever..it's your stock BOV. Get an aftermarket one.

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.
