I think dan only raised the comparison as phase autos mentioned land speed record taxi... seems like a fair comparison.

Should give it a really distinct "Sssssssstu tu tu tu" blow off valve. Would suit the whole awesome funny taxi thing.

Keeping an eye on this :)


that dose comes from boost and not having a blowoff valve and as blow offs dont help an auto down the strip its getting a dose!


I have believed this for a long time that the Sssstu tu tu sound was from dose but I had no sound from my wagon under boosted, I fitted a turbo smart blow off and now it does the dose sound. Could you shed some light on what is the case there?


there must be a confusion in sounds as a blow off is your psssst and a dose is tu tu tu tu tu?

when you in melbourne next with it bring it in for a look!


do you have it hooked up befor the turbo?

The entire loom was changed with one from an ea ghia and it still wouldn't run properly, that's the reason I sold it.
