Default movie of apexi b.o.v

a lot of people have wanted to hear what this thing sounded like.

this is at idle so it might sound a little different but its pretty much how it sounds.

Yeah ive got the apexi twin chamber bov and I love it. It's like the perfect bov sound. Sounds like a big rush of air and not a high pitch squeek. The bov actually sounds louder when you really get on it then just idling. Also another cool feature you can adujst it's sound.

not quite sure....i was gonna go out with some of my other turbo friends and see if we could swap b.o.v's for a night since one has an hks super sequential and one has a greddy type s.

I think they all have different fittings though so iono if it'll work.

Hey let me know if its possible. I've got an HKS Racing BOV.... liked it at first but it sounds kinda harsh at high boosts...I want a nice whoooosh sound.
