Unbelievable. All the benefit with none of the downside.

Can't adequately describe how bad it feels to know that my turbo does not make a PPPSSSHHHHhhhhhhhh sound. How will the ricers ever show due respect? Might have to buy a simulated BOV sound device AND one of these. Now I know what they mean about turbos being expensive.

Tony, you'll need a really big fart pipe for the little gismo to fit. Chrome, of course. And a wing.

I wonder what the effects would be on a car that already has a turbo? Double turbo noise? Maybe they'll cancel each other out for the ultimate stealth mobile?
