I didn't think about it, till it was to late, but I should have had my camera guy film in th opposite direction, so when I passed by you would see the Flame come out the pipe...


The first flyby, as soon as I pass the cameras point of veiw, you here a pop. That's when the Flame shot out.

I got a mini security cam...I just need to component that converts A/V input and outputs USB so I can direct feed it into a laptop. Next time, I'll get it.

Ooof, hopefully you dont use that tech very often, I'm sure your brakes hate you. Nifty vid though.

I don't know how you can stand the sound of the HKS like that in cabin. It hurt my ears through my headphones

We don't have that problem here. People can have their cars out all year long but we do have fewer places to go were there's no one around.

The HKS is awesome! You have to drive in a car with it. It makes people who don't know be like "what the heck is wrong with your car" and people that know be like "he's got something under that hood". I wanted to go all stealth but couldn't refuse the sound.

LOL...Funny thing is...I can afford new brakes, and also I don't have an HKS exhaust. It's a ZPI exhaust system with a Blitz Nur Spec instead of the Magnaflow that comes with it. Built and welded by Kenny himself....And I love every minute of it....

You forget that the turbo makes your exhaust super quiet. You heard the car at WOT. It sounds no where near that loud when driving normal, just a deep growl.

The BOV dewd :p I had to pull my headphones off my ears. Maybe it's less prominent in person, but the sound in the video was like GAH

LOL...Funny thing is...I can afford new brakes,
Yea, so could I, but that doesn't change the fact that it's unnecessarily hard on your brakes. It's good to use when making highway pulls against the V8's, but should be used sparingly.

Are you guys sure you are talking about the BOV? The BOV sound only happens between shifts. He is running an open wastegate could that be the sound you are talking about?

I love the HKS, sounds a lot better than any other BOV that I've heard run on any tC...of course, that's my opinion..

Yeah, I'm confused on which sound they are trying to describe too. Open WG's sound the whole time your at WOT. BOV's are in between shifts....or more accurately stated...when the throttle plate closes.
