Re: Turbo sound? (girty)
it was most likely his blow-off valve, to release the pressurized air being forced into the engine coming from the turbocharger.
but he could have one of those ebay "turbo sound" things.
edit: why are there so many trolls lately?

Please tell me that you didnt join HT just to ask this question right?
It wouldnt matter what model civic it was, considering that none of them have ever come turbocharged stock. But yes, that "noise" you heard was from his BOV.
for boost.
