Question
Before i had no filter on my turbo and the BOV (HKS SSBOV) was louder than now..Now that i have my old AEM CAI Filter...Its not as loud..Is this normal or do i need a new filter thats made for turbos???

 

its normal that having a filter on the turbo would make it quieter. i once drove without a filter on mine for awhile and your right . it is about 4 times louder than with a filter, but the filter protects it

 

Cool, glad to see i was justy trippin out then....

 

Weird, I never noticed a diff going from no filter to filter.

 

I don't understand how an air filter would affect the BOV sound. It is after the turbo, IC piping etc. I guess I could see how it could affect the spool sound , but BOV I don't know.

Its a huge difference . The turbo itself is alot louder when you have no filter but when you let off the gas the bov is crisper and quicker

 

LOL
