That should be good for 30+ kw I would say...
Just need some stickers, respray in red, huge GT wing, and you'll have a high 10, low 11 second FTO
Or if you're real hardcore add a ralliart badge and you may hit 9's

I wonder if you could extend the noises so it makes a blown turbo sound too (for when you push it too hard)?????

I don't get the point of these kind of products, is not like a turbo sound going to scare others on the rd. It would only cause more humiliations when a real turbo or a decent N/A take it on & then get caned by them.
The only thing it mate do are impress some kids that watch too much F&TF & doesn't know better.

i wonder how it works?
Its got to be pretty precise with the changing of the gears.

its just a whistle sitting in the exhaust.... exhaust blows through it.... it whistles

That would mean that its going to lose power than anythign due to it being restrictive.

dude, it just sits inside the tip, by the time any exhaust gets there there would be no power to suck out of it

The normal blow off valve is inside the engine bay and this crap is inside the exhaust tip.
I would love to see it in action

I think this "rice" device is to mimic the sound of turbo & not BOV.

Oh damn!

Sound interesting.....
If you want more noise, just rip your muffler off!

What a phenomenal waste of money; I got my mates and/or girlfriend to make the BOV sound when I change gears for free

Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
