the turbonetics kit is pretty quiet, having them make videos they would sound all the same as the other kits...

The turbonetics BOV has an interrupted sputter sound to it, that's not very loud in comparison to most atmospheric BOVs. This is at least what my friends sounds like.

Yea its not very loud at all. Its not really worth taking a video. Most people want that BOV sound.

I have good video at the track and all but my laptopcrashes when I try to convert it to a file. The kit has lots of sound effects. More than enough to get me in trouble with the police. The BOV make a nice KSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. But thats only the part off the tear ___ sounds the kit has as a whole. The sqwwwwweeeeeell of some of the more "popular" BOVs gets old after awhile and in my opinion is very fugin lame. The SSQV reminds me the flick Deliverance.

The sputter is compressor surge not the BOV. Its the BOV doing its job and holding pressure. When you let off the gas at full boost the BOV goes off and its a big KSHHHHHHHHH.
