My ST venting/recirculating/dumping

[MarkCup]

Not sure which it is, but I like.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Is it that loud in the car?

 

[MarkCup]

Nope. With the windows closed you can't hear it. With them open you can, just.

 

[Simon@SprayShack]

venting = fail, keep that tubby quiet. Its far to "try hard" turbo dumps IMO of course.

 

[Matt Cup]

I don't get it, sounds weird/fake. Have you put a microphone in or near the airbox?

 

[StephenJ]

This. Sounds like its being recorded from in the engine bay?

 

[Jaff.]

That almost sounds unhealthy...

​my focus is literally silent, so unless the 1.6 is massively different I can't see why yours wouldn't be?

 

[leeds_182]

I know I keep going on about it but I miss the gloves.

 

[Addicted]

Sounds s**t/fucked.

 

[Matt W]

Microphone in the air box most likely!

 

[Simon_16v]

Sounds like a Skoda Yeti 1.4 turbo with the airbox dismantled....not that I've ever done that before lol

 

[MarkCup]

Microphone is next to the airbox inlet just behind the front lip of the bonnet.

The Mountune kit makes it much more noticeable apparently. Hopefully not too much though.

 

[Ian_182]

That would drive me mad.

 

[Herr Flick]

What is the point of recording it from the engine bay? (Not that there is a point at all) sounds like a fake sound.

​

 

[gez 172]

I don't get these vids either, that just sounds completely Ott / broken etc. you recorded the 200 in the engine bay before trying to make it sound like it had a massive filter.

Just do a normal vid of the car, it's a great car anyway, without trying too hard in vids

 

[BoatNonce]

As an aside, it seems to gather pace pretty effortlessly.

 

[DB.]

Do a normal car vid, that's like listening to a dog bark by putting a microphone up its arse.

 

[Martin_172]

that sounds like my twingo and that was my ear in the car not mic in airbox lol!

 

[Krys_23]

​Hahahahaha

 

[fez]

kept expecting to hear "LUKE"
honestly thought it was something being played throught the speakers in the car

​haha this! Bit of a strange video.

 

[JCC]

My mates mark 1 LCR with Badger 5 intake genuinely sounds not far off that in the car lol

 

[Daniel]

My impreza sounded like that with the windows closed! Drove me mental 50% of the time but the other 50% I got a hardon.

 

[Mr Plums]

Sounds like you have a cone filter fitted as you can hear the sucking and you can hear the recirc valve dumping more, definitely sounds like you have it recorded from under the bonnet too.

 

[CircularOnline]

You get use to it after a while I got the ZS 2013 nice motor build quality is nice the turbo kicks in nice. Just alot of lag when changing gears to the lack of torque but if you shift perfect its awesome. Defiantly going to Part ex it in a year for the ST. My MPG

 

[CircularOnline]

my MPG is around 40+ even with the foot down now and then

 

[mini_nick]

I dont get why people are complaining about the vid, its just to highlight the noise that the turbo makes, if it wasn't recorded by the airbox as Mark says, you wouldn't be able to hear it!

Looks an awesome car, hoping to get one of these eventually!

 

[Christopher.]

What mic you using Mark ? Is the cable just run out the window ?

I like the noise

 

[ColinG]

Sounds cool! Sawone of these yesterday in a purepley blue colour, looked brilliant!

 

[MarkCup]

I like the noise

A cheap thing I bought via eBay, plugged into the side of the GoPro, run out of the door and under the bonnet then crocodile clipped in place.

​Cone filter?

 

[MarkCup]

​Cone filter?

Nope. Standard.

You always drive so close to the wheel? Your legs look all bent up.

Seat bases are at a very steep angle so accentuates it and I like the wheel as close to me as possible so have the seat back as upright as possible.

 

[C.J]

Sounds like a 116i I had as a courtesy. Sounds fake.

 

[DanielJames]

Wtf :headno:
