The BD one works, but it's a PITA to get set up right. I do believe it's worth it though, I hate barking my turbo.

figures, but hey man thanks for the tutorial i didnt know that. appreciate it

Is that black smoke coming out from under the hood? Would that be from an external wastegate? I agree that it deffinetly sounds like a bark and no BOV seems to be present.

If you watch closely and blow up the screen size that smoke if coming from the tail pipe and wind is blowing it across the top of the truck/hood area.

If it were an external wastegate the smoke would be exiting the same time he is at full boost not after he has left off.

I have the BD BOV on my truck I think its a great mod for a big single with alot of bark but not really for my twins. Definitely awesome to have when showing your truck off to someone, the noise is bad a**.

Anybody watch any of those other videos? Check out the horn blasters video.
Thats pretty funny when the cop gets in tha face. There is also a 500hp Hyabusa in there that does 0-230mph in just a few seconds on the street and I also saw a powerstroke thats drag racin some ricers and wins and a gsxr 1100 on a racing go-cart frame. Anybody got a better site with sum good vids???

It's not a diesel but it makes the same sound. I'll try to get a clip of a buddies truck with one on it.
